Pick up yerr swords and go to battle! Use cheap double strikers equipped with swords to get massive amounts of card advantage and apply a lot of pressure on your opponents. Many times the way to beat powerful ramp or control strategies is simply start beating them in the face, and this deck does a wonderful job at doing just that. Very happy with how this list has been running, so it might be some time before I update it again. What do you guys think?

When Ikoria released, I figured a new commander for this deck as in order. Snapdax naturally has double strike, is a mana cheaper, and has enough toughness to survive something like an Elesh Norn being on the board. But, I find myself missing Zurgo for the nostalgia rush, I've had so many memories of suiting up Zurgo and going to the red zone for lethal. If you want to max out the optimization for this deck, run Snapdax, and certainly I might be swapping in and out for different play groups, but for now I'll be running Zurgo!
