Commander: Redshift, Rocketeer Chief

Bracket: 5

Deck overview

This is a high-power Gruul combo deck helmed by Redshift, Rocketeer Chief, built to generate overwhelming mana and win through infinite combats, infinite mana, or Kiki-Jiki loops. The commander doubles as a tap-to-mana engine (power-dependent) and an exhaust-finsiher that dumps permanents from hand. The deck's 1.98 average MV (excluding lands) and dense acceleration (7 mana dorks, 7 rituals, 7 rocks) let it deploy threats and assemble combos frighteningly fast. Primary win conditions: Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Zealous Conscripts for infinite hasty tokens, Godo, Bandit Warlord + Helm of the Host for infinite combats, Aggravated Assault + infinite mana to chain extra combat phases, Staff of Domination or Walking Ballista to convert infinite mana into a win, and Umbral Mantle/Sword of the Paruns + a mana dork (often Selvala, Heart of the Wilds or Redshift itself) to produce infinite mana and power. The deck is a glass-cannon that can explode on turn 3-4 with a tutor and a single piece of haste.
