The theme of this deck is trying to kill all opponents at the same time!

I was inspired to make this deck because I pulled a Archfiend of Despair in the commander masters preview event. I was looking at commanders that run this card and I saw a lot of Rakdos, Lord of Riots and Kaalia of the Vast decks. I am considering the Rakdos deck because it seems fun to cheat creatures out. However, this type of deck also seems super fun. This deck is a 'control combats' archetype. Meaning that there is a lot of ways to control your opponents creatures while simultaneously attacking multiple people at once with your own.

The goal of this deck is to kill multiple opponents at the same time in a casual way. I saw multiple kaalia of the vast decks where they'd combo people to death with hidetsugu and wound reflection type of stuff. That wouldn't really be cool in my play group.

Game Plan

The game plan is to control your opponents through forcing them into combats. Then when your opponents are defenseless strike them all at the same time with your OWN creatures.

You don't need to cast your commander until you know you can control the board. We want to be able to cast our commander by turn 3 if possible. Although I will say, you will likely not want to cast your commander right away unless you know you can control the board. If you commander gets killed over and over again it's going to be very annoying. This deck should still be able to run without her just fine.

Accelerating Gameplay

For Ramp we tried to have as much fast mana as possible, we want at least 1 of these in our opening hand:

• Arcane Signet
• Birds of Paradise
• Chromatic Lantern
• Fellwar Stone
• Ignoble Hierarch
• Nature's Lore
• Three Visits

Then we have big mana for closing out games:

• Mirari's Wake - great for doubling mana and giving just a straight up anthem. It's a great spell.
• Neheb, the Eternal - great for just dumping mana into spells such as Exsanguinate or casting spells that will further our game plan such as Wound Reflection.

For card advantage we want things that revolve around creatures, etb, ltb, combat damage:

• Guardian Project
• Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor
• Garruk's Uprising
• Karazikar, the Eye Tyrant
• Ohran Frostfang
• The Great Henge
• Deathreap Ritual

Then for quick impulse draw when we need it:

• Night's Whisper
• Sign in Blood

And finally for slow consistent draw:

• Phyrexian Arena

Controlling your Opponents Gameplay

Controlling other plays comes in two different packages, spot removal and goading. Removing their main pieces of their game plan will altar their plans significantly, then you can goad all their stuff into attacking your other opponents so they can't retaliate. The goad package is as follows:

• Bloodthirsty Blade - Attach this to the strongest creature on the board to ensure protection
• Disrupt Decorum - Cause mayhem, use once someone dumps all their mana onto the board for creatures.
• Kardur, Doomscourge - Cause mayhem, and benefit
• Karazikar, the Eye Tyrant - goad the strongest thing on the board. Double it up with Isshin, Two Heavens as One or Bloodthirster
• Marisi, Breaker of the Coil - can cause mayhem for a single player or multiple depending on how you play.
• Spectacular Showdown - cause mayhem, and make everyone's shit stronger
• Taunt from the Rampart - cause mayhem and make it so no one can block
• Vengeful Ancestor - goad strongest thing to make sure it can't touch you. OR use to force weak threats into dying. Pairs nicely again with Isshin, Two Heavens as One or myriad giving abilities such as Blade of Selves

For our removal we have nothing but destroy spells but we focus on any non-land target spells as our spells of choice. Obviously instant speed is required.

• Anguished Unmaking
• Beast Within
• Chaos Warp
• Despark
• Generous Gift
• Swords to Plowshares

We also have some minor spells that slow our opponents down such as the following:

• Urabrask the Hidden
• Hammers of Moradin
• Karazikar, the Eye Tyrant

Protecting our Pieces

Our protection package includes stuff that we can cast for free possibly or cheap:

• Boros Charm
• Deflecting Swat
• Flawless Maneuver
• Iroas, God of Victory - Makes attacking creatures sudo indestructible
• Lightning Greaves - protect a single threat, give haste
• Mother of Runes - protect a single threat or help a threat get through.
• Swiftfoot Boots - protect a single threat, give haste
• Sword of Hearth and Home - protect a single threat, help it get through

Everyone Everywhere All at Once Loses

The everyone Everywhere All at Once Loses category is how we win our games, this focuses on giving threats myriad, multiple combats, heavy hitters, and myriad creatures themselves.

• Archfiend of Despair - Everyone will lose life equal to whatever they lost each turn. Devastating card to play in any deck but especially in one where combats are always happening.
• Battle Angels of Tyr - myriad that ramps us and gives us card draw
• Blade of Selves - gives a thread myriad, cause why not attack the weakest player and hit everyone!
• Bloodthirster - hit everyone once in 3 different combats. Give this myriad and hit everyone 3 times in 3 different combats.
• Commissar Severina Raine - drain everyone, works well with myriad
• Duke Ulder Ravengard - big beater that gives something haste and myriad
• Elturel Survivors - has myriad and will hit everyone for having mana!
• Exsanguinate - possible win con and drains everyone while it heals you!
• Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor - can cause people to drain their hp - they won't realize how much of a mistake that is against this deck.
• Hammers of Moradin - a 3 cost that taps our opponents creatures and has myriad? Disgusting.
• Legion Loyalty - gives all our creatures myraid
• Mishra, Claimed by Gix   - drains everyone, pairs well with isshin, two heaves as one
• Sower of Discord - everyone will be hit after this and our commander is on the board!
• Wound Reflection - everyone gets hit twice!

We also have a bunch of stuff that goads other peoples creatures so they can't attack us while also making our opponents suffer. It throughs a wrench in our opponents game plans heavily. Please see the Controlling our Opponents section.

Next, we have pieces that will buff our stuff to kill our opponents:

• Aurelia, the Warleader
• Duelist's Heritage - can be used to buff our opponents creatures as well!
• Garruk's Uprising - gives our stuff trample
• Gisela, Blade of Goldnight - doubles damage, while reducing ours.
• Iroas, God of Victory - gives menace and sudo indestructible
• Isshin, Two Heavens as One - Double up on attack triggers!
• Kessig Wolf Run - give something trample
• Mirari's Wake - gives anthem
• Ohran Frostfang - gives death touch
• Rogue's Passage - gives unblockable
• The Great Henge - gives a 1/1 counter

Finally, we have our haste enablers, since we're an aggro control deck we need our stuff to hit the second it's on the board. For these cards we tried to focus on haste enablers that had multiple functions:

• Duke Ulder Ravengard
• Hanweir Battlements  
• Lightning Greaves
• Swiftfoot Boots
• Rhythm of the Wild
• Rising of the Day
• Samut, Voice of Dissent
• Urabrask the Hidden

Then to end the game and you're ready to win cast:

Akroma's Will

This will end it most likely.
