Cloud EX Soldier by XoloMTG

Format: Commander

Commander: Cloud, Ex-SOLDIER

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Cloud, Ex-SOLDIER leads a Naya Equipment aggro deck that wins through combat damage, not combos. The primary plan is to flood the board with Equipment, use Cloud's haste and free attach to immediately draw cards per equipped attacker and generate Treasures at 7 power, then leverage double strike and extra combats from Tifa and Overpowering Attack to eliminate opponents sequentially. Secondary paths include go-wide Rebel tokens from Barret, Avalanche Leader and SOLDIER Military Program, and a large Bronze Guardian or Hellkite Tyrant steal. Cloud is the draw engine and haste enabler; Stonehewer Giant acts as hidden commander tutoring any Equipment directly onto the battlefield.
