ComboĬombo decks usually try to exploit your commander’s abilities to take over tables and games once they resolve. This is the true essence of aggressive decks. Each of these examples works differently, but in the end you aim to finish your games by engaging in combat. AggroĪggro decks commonly use commanders that encourage battles or lead you towards playing multiple creatures.Įxamples of these are Xenagos, God of Revels, Kaalia of the Vast, and Aurelia, The Warleader.

Some others are more flexible, like Kenrith, the Returned King, since their abilities don’t point you in any particular direction.īecause of this you need to know what kind of deck you want to build. Krenko leads you to build a goblin tribal deck where you want to be aggressive most of the time. Some commanders are very intuitive, like Krenko, Mob Boss.
