Sideboard

Creature (1)


Maybeboard


Formerly titled "For the Honor of Goldnight!"

Deck thesis: "Ramp into the mana needed to cast my commander and kill with commander damage" (as with any Voltron deck). I spend the preceding turns getting protective effects like Ghostly Prison and Grand Abolisher and/or equipment into play. Sunforger is a huge asset, allowing me to tutor for answers to bad situations for the low cost of two mana and at instant speed. I also have several ways to tutor for, cheat in, and attach equipment for cheap or for free.

Burnished Hart is a sideboard replacement for Smothering Tithe for the occasional 1v1 game.

If, for some reason, I can't attack with Gisela, Grafted Exoskeleton + Chandra's Ignition or Chandra, Torch of Defiance + Gisela, Blade of Goldnight are some alternative win-cons. Or, just slap a bunch of equipment on another creature.

Others on the "Maybeboard":

Maze of Ith would give me some more protection, which is especially vital in the early game while I'm trying to ramp up, but in cutting another land for it, it would effectively be a net loss of one land, as it's not going to produce any mana for me unless I have Chromatic Lantern out. Thaumatic Compass   is an option because it flips into a land that both produces mana and is a Maze effect, but it's usually going to be slower than I would want it to be.

Apropos of the deck name, I want to lean more heavily into a sword theme for the equipment kit, but finding cuts for this deck is hard.
