Abzan Armor by nomak918

Format: Commander

Commander: Felothar the Steadfast

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Felothar the Steadfast turns an Abzan fortress of high-toughness walls and defenders into a relentless attacking army by using toughness for combat damage and letting defenders attack. The primary plan is to ramp with defender-druids, flood the board with walls, then draw enormous numbers of cards by sacrificing a high-toughness creature to Felothar. Redundant toughness-matters effects in Assault Formation, Bedrock Tortoise, Doran, and Baldin let the deck function even if the commander is absent. The finish comes from a pumped overrun (Craterhoof Behemoth plus Akroma's Will) or from Tree of Perdition and life-drain effects. No hidden commander exists; these enablers are strong lieutenants but not separately castable repeat engines.
