Format: Commander

Commander: Lightning, Army of One

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Lightning, Army of One is a Boros equipment-voltron deck that turns one commander trigger into a lasting damage-doubling effect. The primary plan is to suit Lightning with pump equipment, put a 6+ power attacker on the board, then use extra-combat cards to get a second hit against the same player so the Stagger trigger doubles it. Reaver Cleaver plus Aggravated Assault can form a treasure-fueled extra-combat loop, while Gisela and Kediss turn a single large hit into damage at every opponent. The command zone is the engine; Kediss acts as a hidden damage-spreader. The deck also keeps a solid midrange beatdown path through Aurelia, Gisela, and Bruenor if Lightning is taxed.
