Deck overview

This deck is an aggressive Mardu combat strategy built around Isshin, Two Heavens as One. Isshin doubles every attacking trigger on your permanents, turning single attack steps into explosive resource swings. The deck curves into low-cost token generators such as Anim Pakal, Thousandth Moon, Hero of Bladehold, and Myrel, Shield of Argive, doubling their creature production on every swing. As the token swarm widens, life-drain effects like Commissar Severina Raine and team buffs like Cathars' Crusade rapidly put all three opponents in lethal range. Extra combat enablers including Karlach, Fury of Avernus, Aurelia, the Warleader, and Relentless Assault multiply these triggers further in a single turn cycle. High-tier protection spells like Teferi's Protection, Flawless Maneuver, and Deflecting Swat safeguard the board against wipes and spot removal. Additionally, the deck packs an instant-kill combo in Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and Combat Celebrant, offering a compact win condition alongside overwhelming combat pressure.
