{"ops":[{"insert":"Deck Name: The Serpent's Sacrifice: Jugan Combo\nCommander: Jugan, the Rising Star\nPower Level: High (Infinite Combo / Midrange Synergy)\nOverview\nThis Mono-Green Commander deck transforms Kamigawa’s legendary spirit dragon into a relentless engine of sacrifice, +1/+1 counters, and infinite loops. Rather than relying on traditional green beatdown strategies, this deck uses Jugan, the Rising Star as a highly abusable combo piece. By intentionally sending your commander to the graveyard, you trigger massive counter distribution, trigger massive card draw, and bypass the commander tax entirely through artifact recursion.\nThe Core Engine\nThe deck operates by sacrificing Jugan for immediate value. Greater Good and Ashnod's Altar are your primary outlets, allowing you to convert Jugan into either five cards or two colorless mana while immediately distributing five +1/+1 counters. To maximize these death triggers, enchantments like Hardened Scales, Branching Evolution, and Doubling Season multiply the counters, while The Ozolith ensures that your hard-earned power is never lost if a creature is removed.\nInfinite Win Conditions\nThis build houses several infinite loops centered around Nim Deathmantle, which catches Jugan before he hits the command zone to avoid the tax:\nInfinite Mana & Counters: Sacrifice Jugan to Ashnod's Altar and put his counters on Crystalline Crawler. Remove the crawler's counters for colored mana, combine it with the Altar's colorless mana, and pay the 4 for Nim Deathmantle to bring Jugan back. This loop yields infinite mana and infinite +1/+1 counters for your board.\nInfinite Tokens & Counters: With Genesis Chamber, Jugan entering creates a Myr token. Sacrifice the token and Jugan to Ashnod's Altar to float 4 colorless mana, distributing Jugan's counters to your board. Use the 4 mana to pay for the Deathmantle, bringing Jugan back to trigger Genesis Chamber again.\nInfinite Damage: Substitute Ashnod's Altar with Blasting Station in the loops above (with infinite mana established) to machine-gun the table down.\nCard Advantage & Payoffs\nIf you aren't comboing off immediately, the deck plays a punishing midrange value game. You convert your massive, counter-laden creatures into card draw using Rishkar's Expertise, Return of the Wildspeaker, and The Great Henge. Walking Ballista and Triskelion serve as alternate win conditions, happily absorbing Jugan's death triggers to ping opponents to death. Gyre Sage and Incubation Druid act as massive mana batteries once primed with a few counters, ensuring you can manually pay commander tax or cast your massive draw spells if the artifact loops are disrupted.\nRamp and Disruption\nThe deck utilizes hyper-efficient green ramp (Three Visits, Nature's Lore) and mana dorks to ensure you can cast Jugan ahead of schedule. When opponents threaten your engine, a suite of targeted removal (Beast Within, Nature's Claim, Song of the Dryads) and asymmetrical wipes (Ezuri's Predation) clear the way for your spirit dragon to take over the game.\n"}]}

The Ozolith
