Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"I’ve always enjoyed building decks my own way rather than following the obvious or established strategies.\nCheap cantrips and niche one-mana instants have always had a special place in my heart, so I started collecting as many interesting ones as I could. Once I had the core of the deck, choosing the commander was easy—Jin Sakai felt like the perfect fit. The color combination, the value the commander generates, the protection offered by cheap instants, and the available pump effects all come together to create a very unconventional take on Voltron.\nThe deck is capable of ending games with an explosive, storm-like turn where you one-shot an opponent with commander damage. If that plan isn’t available, it can also pivot into going wide by creating a board full of tokens, giving you plenty of blockers early and a formidable attacking force once you've built up enough of them.\nThis deck is a blast to play. It’s budget-friendly, sits comfortably in the lower power brackets, and yet I’ve consistently found myself knocking out a player as early as turns 4 or 5.\nI didn’t spend much time optimizing the mana base, so feel free to upgrade it however you like.\nEnjoy!\n"}]}
