This was my first commander deck.

I know it has red in it...

Either way, this is an equipment based voltron style list. If you don't know what that means, it's okay I'll explain it to you non-90's kids. Voltron refers to building up one super strong thing that obliterates enemies, which is exactly what we do with this deck.

What do?

The easiest way to start playing this deck is to use mana rocks like Sol Ring, Mana Vault, and Mox Opal to ramp out mana production and play Jor Kadeen, the Prevailer and drop as much equipment on the field as possible to equip to him.

I know what you all are thinking,"he's only a 5/4 first striker, that's not that scary." True he's not at that size. However he does have metalcraft and when you played all those mana rocks, guess what. You already have at least three artifacts. He's now an 8/4 first striker.

Hit em' where it hurts...

In commander people like to gain life, either to score points at a commander league or to prevent death from the other players in the pod. Well there's one thing wrong with that, commander damage. Even if you have 14 trillion life, 21 points of commander damage is enough to send someone home packing. And lucky enough that's only 3 hits with your commander... or is it?

You have a multitude of equipment and abilities in your deck. Protection from colors, life gain, trample, drawing cards to name a few, but the real ringer is double damage. Yes indeed. All you need is an equipment to give an additional +3 power and some way to deal double damage. Yes you added correctly that would be 22 points of damage from our commander.

Lights out!

Some times you need to whammy your pod for the win. Like other decks this one can "combo out." Yes you heard me, combo combat damage. This only requires a few things, a nasty creature...cough...jor kadeen..., Sword of Feast and Famine, Aggravated Assault, and five lands, two of which produce red. Simply attack, connect with someone's face, untap your mana then in the second main phase, activate aggravated assualt. Boom, you have another combat phase. Rinse and repeat. Endless combat phases, what a way to go!
