Etali by SashimiNinja

Format: Commander

Commander: Etali, Primal Conqueror // Etali, Primal Sickness

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This Gruul turbo deck leverages fast mana and ritual bursts to resolve Etali, Primal Conqueror ahead of curve, utilizing its front face to chain massive free spells from all players' libraries. While Etali can transform into an 11/11 indestructible poison lethal threat, the deck primarily wins through creature clone engines like Delina, Wild Mage, Jaxis, the Troublemaker, and Rionya, Fire Dancer to repeatedly trigger Etali or generate infinite combat steps. Alternative paths include Godo, Bandit Warlord tutoring Helm of the Host for infinite attacks, or casting Dualcaster Mage copying Twinflame or Heat Shimmer to flood the board with hasty lethal attackers.
