Shu Yun, the Silent Tempest

Commander / EDH

Spartanzealot9


When I first saw Shu Yun, he screamed Storm to me. Jeskai control is an EDH deck I've wanted to make for a long time, and Khans block gave me the cards to finally do it.

This deck can attack from a few different angles:

First and foremost, it's a Jeskai tokens deck. The main goal is to generate a huge storm count for Empty the Warrens, or just trigger cards like Talrand, Sky Summoner, Monastery Mentor, and Young Pyromancer as many times as possible. This gives you a huge army to attack with, or if Purphuros, God of the Forge is in play, end the game outside of combat. The Mentor tokens are especially important, as their Prowess abilities make them exceptionally deadly. You can then attack an opponent right out of the game with a token army coupled with Aurelia, the Warleader, or Hellrider / Hero of Bladehold.

The second means of attack comes via Shu Yun himself. Again, just triggering Prowess as many times as possible, and giving him Double Strike can make him a one shot kill in many instances.

The third angle comes from huge mana generation off of Wheel of Fortune effects and cards like Mana Geyser. This enables you to just kill one or more opponents on the spot via Comet Storm, or again, generating a huge token army off of White Sun's Zenith, or of course, drawing a bunch of cards with Sphinx's Revelation.

The only Storm cards right now are Empty the Warrens, Ignite Memories, and Mind's Desire. Currently contemplating Brain Freeze or Temporal Fissure as well.
