Nekusar - Wheel / Board-Theft comboMy first deck, new to mtg and I only play commander.
I’ve seen a lot of cool nekusar builds, but none having a mass-board theft ability.
It goes like this.
Step 1:
Willbreaker and
Archfiend of Ifnir on the battlefield together.
Step 2:
Archfiend of Ifnir’s Discard / cycle ability, trigger -1/1 on all creatures.
Step 3: Thus triggering control of everything on the board.
(But wait, there’s a way around shroud/hexproofed creatures) WTf!?!
Let’s swap
Archfiend of Ifnir with
Vedalken Humiliator.
Step 1:
Willbreaker +
Vedalken Humiliator (pre-requisite: 3 or more artifacts to trigger Vedalkin Humiliator’s “Metalcraft”
Very easy to do with this deck via tutor/draw triggers being there are at least 10 artifacts total.
Step 2: Attack with
Vedalken Humiliator; Metalcraft triggers; bipass hexproof/shroud
Finally, creatures opponents control lose all abilities, and become 1/1’s UNDER YOUR CONTROL.
When your turn ends, they remain under your control as long as you control
Willbreaker.
Turn ends; They are no longer 1/1’s... you have all commanders that were out, wtf right?...
Imagine if you hexproof
Willbreaker, or
clone Willbreaker using
Vesuvan Shapeshifter or
Vizier of Many Faces. You can see the potential, though this is a sub-theme that would probably be better in a deck without cards that cause me to discard too: it’s under 9% chance to get all 3 out With my lack of tutor’s... but I may add a
Diabolic Tutor for now to get by until I can get a
Mystical Tutor.
If you have any card suggestions, or idea’s of other ways to trigger this nasty combo; even a better commander, please lmk!
I can’t find any topics on this combo, and the card’s are underrated imo.
If this goes off, it can not only
turn the tide in one attacking 3/4, but it’s going to be the saltiest way to end a game I can imagine; especially if you luck out and take control of another
shapeshifter to re-morph into a 2nd
Willbreaker (it’s not legendary!)
Protean hulk is cool, but taking over up to 5 people’s creatures in one step, wtf...
Please tell me if I’m misreading anything before I start invest too far! Thanks for reading, appreciate all feedback.
