Red Rover Red Rover send Alexios over by MISTAHJ

Format: Pauper Commander

Commander: Alexios, Deimos of Kosmos

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Alexios, Deimos of Kosmos pilots a mono-red "volatile gift" strategy: each player gains control of it on their upkeep, it attacks compulsorily, and it cannot attack its owner. The deck leans into this by suiting Alexios up with cheap Equipment and Auras that boost power, grant evasion, or create mana (Treasure/Clue tokens), then letting opponents wield the ever-growing threat against each other while the Alexios player chips in with pinger permanents like Erebor Flamesmith and Firebrand Archer. The primary win condition is accumulating combat damage over several turns via a huge, trampling Alexios, backed by incidental pings from noncreature spells. There are no infinite combos; the plan is slow, incremental pressure.
