Chong and Lily, Nomads

Chong and Lily, Nomads is a unique Saga-focused commander that turns your enchantment table into a damage engine. The core gameplan revolves around building a modest Bard tribal core to trigger attacks consistently, then leveraging Sagas—especially ones with powerful lore abilities—to accumulate value while simultaneously pumping your creatures. Each attack with your Bards lets you either advance Sagas faster or convert those lore counters into immediate combat pressure via the +1/+0 pump.

You'll want to lean into efficient Bards and anthem effects to keep your attackers relevant, while stocking your deck with a mix of Sagas that do meaningful things at different chapter thresholds. Cards like Fabled Passage and The Wandering Emperor give you utility, while aggressive Sagas such as Embercleave variants and temporary pump effects amplify your damage output turn after turn. The deck wins by going wide with Bards, pumping them with lore counter synergies, and bashing through for steady commander damage and creature combat wins.
