Format: Commander

Commander: Kresh the Bloodbraided

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Kresh, the Bloodbraided turns every other dead creature into a fast, repeatable +1/+1 counter engine. The primary plan is to ramp Kresh out early, feed it double-sized power corpses such as Daemogoth Titan, Force of Savagery, or Yargle and Multani, and then use a power multiplier to cross the 40-damage threshold. Corpsejack Menace and Varolz, the Scar-Striped double the counter mass, while Mr. Orfeo, the Boulder acts as the hidden commander by doubling Kresh's current power during an attack. The normal finisher is Chandra's Ignition on a 40+ power Kresh, with Jarad, Ziatora, and Ghoulcaller Gisa as alternate damage lines. Anzrag also gives Kresh extra combat phases, so a flying 21 power can finish several players at once. Kresh is the central accumulator and the deck's fastest fail line.
