Battle Hymn of the Seraphim

Commander / EDH RW (Boros)

DemonDragonJ


This deck focuses on dealing large amounts of damage (both combat and non-combat) to its opponents very quickly, and having Gisela, Blade of Goldnight as the general is ideal for that strategy, since she reduces damage dealt to me and also encourages my opponents to attack each other.

I also have several cards in this deck with useful abilities that are related to combat damage, such as The Reaver Cleaver and Venerable Warsinger, since their abilities shall be amplified by Gisela, as well, and I have both Sword of Fire and Ice and Sword of War and Peace for their damage-dealing abilities, as well (the life gaining and card drawing abilities are simply nice bonuses, in this case). I did consider putting Torbran, Thane of Red Fell in this deck, but I learned that the players who are dealt damage are the ones who choose how to apply damage-altering effects, so they would never apply the effects the way that I would wish to apply them (i.e., Torbran first, and then Gisela second), so I did not put him in this deck. I also had considered putting Magmatic Force in this deck, but that creature is simply too expensive, so I chose Inferno Titan, instead.

Cards such as Inferno, Starstorm, Solar Blaze, and Pyrohemia shall be practically one-sided mass destruction spells with Gisela on the battlefield, and Heartless Hidetsugu shall end games very quickly if I can have him and Gisela on the battlefield simultaneously. Naturally, I have Balefire Liege in this deck, as it shall be an amazing card to have, with plenty of synergy.

I would like to put Angel of Jubilation in this deck, but I am not certain which card to remove to make room for her, so I shall ask the other users here how they feel about that subject.

I definitely am looking forward to using this deck, so please let me know what you think about it!
