Commander: Frodo, Sauron's Bane

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

The deck is built around Frodo, Sauron's Bane and the Ring mechanic. Its clearest plan is to establish Call of the Ring, accumulate four temptations, transform Frodo into a Rogue, and use Access Tunnel to make the attack unblockable. Combat damage then makes one opponent lose the game. With no haste or extra-combat engine in the primary line, the deck normally needs attacks on turns 7, 8, and 9 to eliminate the table. Equipment provides a strong secondary plan: Cloud, Midgar Mercenary tutors an Equipment, while Buster Sword, Sword of Fire and Ice, Genji Glove, and Hammer of Nazahn improve combat output. The list also has useful removal, graveyard hate, phasing, and commander protection. Its main limits are slow assembly, heavy black-mana requirements, reliance on a single commander ability, and limited stack interaction. It is a focused casual or mid-power deck rather than a competitive Commander construction.
