Jin Sakai by KingCalus

Format: Commander

Commander: Jin Sakai, Ghost of Tsushima

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Jin Sakai leads an Esper attack-alone tempo/voltron deck. The normal game is to protect Jin or another lone attacker, use Jin's Ghost mode to make it unblockable, and ride combat-damage draw into equipment and tutors. The true finisher is Shredder, Shadow Master: when Jin makes it unblockable, its attack tokens hit all opponents and the half-life triggers cut every life total at the same rate, killing the table in three combats. Yuriko, the Tiger's Shadow is a hidden commander that turns unblocked hits into card draw and damage, while Jin voltron and Daxos/Thief provide backup paths. The deck wins fast but needs its key creature alive.
