Chishiro (EDH / Commander)

Paul you bald speccy twat, here's how the deck works. It's very simple.

• Ramp early
• Get Chishiro out early
• Ramp even more, which triggers chishiros token ability
• Get loads of auras, counters, and equipment on the big guy
• Swing big
• Protect from attacks with tokens (so you don't end up like Helicopter)

Here's how some of the cards from each section works:

Ramp - All of the "enchant land" aura cards will ramp and trigger Chishiro's token generator, so even if you have loads of mana they're not dead draws in the late game because they still make tokens. Bear Umbra protects chishiro, makes mana, and makes a token because it's an aura. Sanctum weaver is an enchantment as well as a creature so gets the cost reduction from some of the other cards.

Draw Power - All of these let you draw from enchantments, which all of the auras (land enchantments, chishiro enchantments) are. Snake Umbra protects, buffs, and gives draw power.

Protection - No lightning greaves or whispersilk cloak because they give shroud, which stops you equipping other stuff to Chishiro. Everything else is pretty straight forward.

Removal - Easy stuff, nothing too important.

Value section - Could run more here but kept it simple, Herald of the Pantheon reduces the cost of pretty much everything. Ramp, aura buffs, draw power, the lot.

Buffs - Cheap equipment and auras, letting you spam tokens. Enchantments in the deck let you draw because of the draw power section cards, and cost less because of the value section cards, which is why there are loads of those instead of equipment. Bloodforged battle-axe is borderline big dick energy because it creates of copy of itself when you attack, so that means you get an artifact and a token off of chishiro when it happens. Mage Slayer is borderline big dick energy because it makes chishiro hit like a truck.

+1/+1 - You've spammed out a load of tokens with Chishiro, so you want to make them more than a meat shield. All Will be One is borderline big dick energy because it deals damage to a target when you put counters on stuff, which you do shit loads. Master Chef is nuts in Chishiro because it makes your tokens meaty as fuck, also you can say "yes chef" when you play it. Rhythm of the wild same story. VIGOR is borderline big dick energy because my man stops you taking damage then puts that damage as tokens on your cards.

Big Dick Energy - Elemental Mastery isn't good but if you can pull it off it'll be hilarious. Overwhelming Stampede will win you the game. Primal Vigor doubles everything you do in the deck>

Maybeboard - Stuff that you should buy and add one day, but cost £20+ each, so take it slow.
