Mother of Dragons (Kaalia's Army) by user3824368
Format: Commander
Commander: Kaalia of the Vast
Bracket: 3
Deck overview
This is a Mardu "cheat fatties" deck helmed by Kaalia of the Vast, built to turn her attack trigger into a flood of Angels, Demons, and Dragons. The core plan is to land Kaalia early, connect once, and dump a game-ending threat like Aurelia, the Warleader or Ancient Copper Dragon onto the battlefield tapped and attacking - then chain extra combat steps to do it again and again. Force multipliers are everywhere: Isshin, Two Heavens as One and Roaming Throne double the attack triggers, while Twinflame Tyrant, Gisela, Blade of Goldnight, and Bloodletter of Aclazotz double the damage those bodies deal. The deck wins through overwhelming combat inevitability rather than a single fragile line, with a light stax/protection shell (Voice of Victory, Linvala, Keeper of Silence) keeping the attack phase clean.
