Strategy
Alexander Clamilton is a clever little strategist that rewards you for playing complex, text-heavy spells. Your core game plan is to fill your deck with wordy instants and sorceries—things like Counterspell variants, modal spells, tutors, and draw effects that trigger his scry ability whenever you cast them. This gives you consistent card selection and helps you find answers or threats. His activated ability turns him into a surprise fight engine: you tap him and reveal a card from your library, and his power scales with how many lines of text that card has. Against a deck full of detailed spells, you're likely to hit something with 4+ lines and deal real damage while removing a creature.
The deck plays as a tempo-focused midrange strategy. You're using blue's interaction and card draw to stay ahead while red gives you the combat trick activation and some extra damage tools. Alexander himself survives well (4 toughness) and grows into a threat over time as you cast more wordy spells. You win through a mix of incremental commander damage and using his fight ability to control the board, eventually grinding out opponents with superior card selection and resource advantage.
