This is a modified precon of Breed Lethality, using Reyhan, Last of the Abzan and Ishai, Ojutai Dragonspeaker as partner commanders. They bring counters to the battlefield and Ishai can quickly get out of hand for commander damage. But if the bird monk gets hated on, the goal is to build up any creature and smash with it.

So far, Ishai has proven herself to quickly be a threat with her evasion. Opponents are often casting spells, and if Reyhan is out, you can put even more counters on Ishai. Obviously Ishai will get targeted more often, so I will consider adding hexproof equipment to protect her (probably a good idea anyway since I want to build up one huge creature). I'm quite pleased with how well this partner team does at generating +1+1 counters.
