Altair idea by Biscuitmaj

Format: Commander

Commander: Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Altair is a recursive Assassin engine: each attack exiles one more Assassin from the graveyard, then creates a tapped attacking token for every Assassin already carrying a memory counter. The primary plan is to bin high-value Assassins (The Master, Mari, Roshan, Olivia) and convert each token's entry into damage with Warleader's Call, Impact Tremors, Mirkwood Bats, and Pandemonium. Secondary paths are a go-wide Assassin beatdown amplified by Isshin and the The Master/Maskwood/Roshan line that cancels the end-of-combat exile and turns the army permanent. The commander is both enabler and payoff; The Master, Multiplied is the hidden commander, giving the deck its fastest closing line.
