Legendary Creature — Cyclops
Trample Whenever Borborygmos deals combat damage to a player, put a +1/+1 counter on each creature you control.
“Wide aggro that snowballs with +1/+1 counters on every attack.”
Borborygmos is a straightforward go-wide aggro commander that rewards you for attacking with your team. Every time he connects with a player, all your creatures get +1/+1 counters, which snowballs quickly with multiple attackers. This means you want to build an army of creatures—tokens, weenies, or mid-sized threats—and turn sideways as often as possible. The counters compound each turn, turning even modest creatures into serious threats.
Your core gameplan is to pump out creatures early, protect Borborygmos from removal, and establish a safe attack pattern. Green gives you ramp and token generators (like Verdant Force or Bitterblossom effects), while red provides haste creatures and combat tricks to ensure your damage gets through. As the game goes on, your board becomes exponentially larger and deadlier thanks to the growing counters, creating a threat that's hard to race or block through.
The deck wins through sheer combat damage from a wide board of enhanced creatures. You're not looking for complex combo lines—just efficient creatures, card draw to refuel, and ways to protect your army. Include some evasion and anthems to lock down the game once you hit critical mass.
