Expedition 33 by Ghost52

Format: Commander

Commander: Isshin, Two Heavens as One

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Mardu deck aims to drown opponents in doubled attack triggers. Isshin, Two Heavens as One turns every 'whenever a creature attacks' trigger into a double trigger, so token producers like Adeline, Anim Pakal, and Krenko snowball, while extra-combat cards like Aurelia and Karlach multiply those triggers in a single turn. The primary plan is a wide, growing attack with pump enchantments; a secondary line uses Etali or Gonti for value and Mishra for drain. There is no hidden commander, but Windcrag Siege acts as a backup Isshin effect. The deck has heavy redundancy but lacks direct tutors, so games hinge on natural draws.
