Toph, The First Metalbender by vdeleon

Format: Commander

Commander: Toph, the First Metalbender

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Toph, the First Metalbender turns every nontoken artifact into a land, supercharging landfall triggers and enabling an earthbend combat plan. The primary path is ramp into landfall token engines, then grow one land into a recurring beater each end step; the secondary path is a five-card infinite-mana/draw loop with Staff of Domination, Mirari's Wake, and Yavimaya, finished by Bumi, Unleashed as a hidden extra-combat commander. The deck wins through combat with an army of animated lands, Elemental/Beast tokens, and repeated Bumi combat phases. Toph is both mana engine and animator; without her the artifact-land density and Staff loop disappear, but the token landfall plan still functions.
