Kuja, and the spell slinging wizards by Swade

Format: Commander

Commander: Kuja, Genome Sorcerer // Trance Kuja, Fate Defied

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Rakdos Wizard spellslinger deck turns every noncreature spell into table-wide burn. Kuja, Genome Sorcerer creates a tapped 0/1 Wizard each end step that deals 1 to each opponent when you cast a noncreature spell, then flips to Trance Kuja, Fate Defied at four Wizards to double all Wizard damage. You stack that with Solphim, Twinflame Tyrant, Fiery Emancipation and City on Fire to quadruple pings, while Harmonic Prodigy doubles the triggers. Secondary paths use Bolas's Citadel and Storm-Kiln Artist treasures to chain spells, plus standalone pingers like Black Waltz No. 3 and Guttersnipe. The deck is built for the back face, with Solphim acting as a hidden commander for doubling.
