Strategy Guides
Voltron Strategy Guide
Voltron decks are for players who want the game to revolve around one protected attacker and the timing of each combat step. This strategy wants to build one creature, usually a commander, using equipment and auras for power, evasion, and protection, to win through 21 commander damage on each opponent. Unlike Tokens or Aggro, Voltron does not spread pressure across many bodies, and unlike broad Equipment decks the gear is focused on one threat rather than a wider artifact engine. The best Voltron commanders make commander damage decks feel like a resource puzzle: suit up, connect, protect the threat, then rebuild if the table answers it.
Card Draw Strategy Guide
Card Draw decks are for players who want a full hand to be the engine, the protection, and eventually the win condition. This strategy wants to draw extra cards every turn, using card draw commanders, repeatable engines, wheels, and draw payoffs, to win through card advantage EDH plans such as damage triggers, stocked interaction, or superior late-game resources. Unlike Control, it is not only answering threats, and unlike Spellslinger it cares about the draw event more than the spell cast. The best card draw commanders either refill you directly or convert each extra card into pressure.
