I'm Going to Fill This Pillowcase Full of Bars of Soap by Valkarion

Format: Commander

Commander: Alexios, Deimos of Kosmos

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Alexios is a hot-potato voltron commander: it attacks every combat, can't be sacrificed, and can't attack its owner, forcing opponents to swing it at each other while it rapidly grows. The deck equips Alexios with cheap boots, swords, and hexproof armor, then uses Kediss, extra combats, and group-slug burn (Sunspine Lynx, Price of Progress, Purphoros) to turn one huge attack into table-wide damage. A compact infinite-power line uses Crackdown Construct and Lightning Greaves, finished by Chandra's Ignition or Full Throttle. The commander is the engine and primary threat, but a robust equipment package and alternate burn/combo finish keep the deck functional even when Alexios is answered.
