Don Andres, the Renegade (Pirates steal) by AUserHasNoName

Format: Commander

Commander: Don Andres, the Renegade

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

A Grixis pirate-theft deck that takes opponents' cards and creatures, then uses Don Andres to make stolen creatures into buffed, evasive, hard-to-block pirates while creating Treasures from casting noncreature spells you don't own. The primary plan is pirate tribal combat, using Breeches, Brazen Plunderer and Malcolm to generate card access and Treasure, then closing with extra-combat or double-damage finishers such as Port Razer and Angrath's Marauders. Secondary plans are slower theft-control via Hostage Taker, Coercive Recruiter, and Admiral Beckett Brass, plus a recursion package. The commander is the central payoff, but the deck retains enough independent pirate synergies to function if he is removed.
