The Mad Titan by Primusmagnus

Format: Commander

Commander: Thanos, the Mad Titan

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Villain tribal is the deck's core: cheap Villain triggers, connive draw, and enter effects build a board of evasive tokens and drains. The primary plan is to play a critical mass of Villains, then use Mysterio's army-producing trigger and the Baron/Ultron engine to flood the board while Crossbones, Doom King, and Doom Reigns Supreme shave life totals. Secondary paths are the Doom Reigns free-cast payoff and the post-wipe reanimation with Rise of the Dark Realms or Thunderbolts Conspiracy. Thanos, the Mad Titan is not a combo centerpiece; he is a flexible odd/even board wipe and deathtouch/lifelink attacker that can be blinked for a second wipe. Mysterio acts as the hidden engine, converting a few nontoken Villains into an actual clock.
