Format: Commander

Commander: Jon Irenicus, Shattered One

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Jon Irenicus, Shattered One turns drawback creatures into clocks: he donates a creature to an opponent, taps it, goads it away from you, and makes it unsacrificable, while you draw whenever it attacks. There is no hidden commander; Taniwha is a powerful donation target but not a secondary build-around. The primary plan is to cast Jon early, chain high-power 'gift' creatures, and use attack draws to deploy more each turn. Removal and counters keep the board clear while Ebonblade Reaper and Archfiend of the Dross close out. A secondary path uses Notion Thief and Master of the Feast to turn opponent draws into your cards, and Braids to drain hands and life.
