Ambergris, Citadel Agent

Ambergris is a fast, aggressive Dwarf cleric that rewards you for swinging hard and refueling your hand. The haste means he's attacking from turn three, and his Specialize ability lets you pick one of three modes to suit your game plan—whether that's pumping him up, generating value, or disrupting opponents. The real engine is his attack trigger: discarding your hand to draw two cards lets you cycle through threats, dump cards into the graveyard for reanimation synergies, or simply reload when you're running dry. This encourages a go-wide or go-tall strategy where Ambergris himself can become a lethal threat.

Build this deck around cheap, efficient threats that synergize with discard and graveyard strategies. Red's natural home for aggressive creatures, looting effects, and madness payoffs makes Ambergris shine in a midrange-tempo shell. You want cards that reward discarding (Faithless Looting, Kroxa, Tin-Tin Rummager), creatures that benefit from entering the graveyard, and pump spells to make Ambergris a genuine finisher. His attack trigger also pairs beautifully with cards that care about casting from the graveyard or filling your graveyard as a resource.

Your primary win is commander damage backed by combat tricks and creature support. Secondary wins come through value generation and overwhelming the board with efficient creatures. The deck plays like a flexible beatdown deck that's always got something new to cast, making it forgiving yet powerful.
