Build me an army!! by SigurdVioletFlame

Format: Commander

Commander: Sauron, the Dark Lord

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a Grixis amass-tribal deck built around Sauron, the Dark Lord, aiming to generate a massive Army token through the amass mechanic while leveraging the Ring's tempt triggers for card advantage. The primary plan is to deploy Sauron early, use his passive amass triggers whenever opponents cast spells to grow the Army, then turn the Army sideways for combat damage. Secondary token generation comes from Nazgul and Lord of the Nazgul, the latter creating evasive Wraith tokens off instant/sorcery casts. The deck includes a single extra-combat piece (Scourge of the Throne) to accelerate the clock, and a handful of interaction pieces to clear blockers or protect the board. There is no infinite-combo win; the game ends through overwhelming combat damage or by triggering the Ring repeatedly to drown the table in card advantage.
