Dong Zhou, the Tyrant

Dong Zhou is a straightforward aggressive commander that punishes your opponents' own creatures. When he enters, you force-feed an opponent's best threat back at them, which is both removal and damage rolled into one. The core gameplan is to leverage this damage trigger repeatedly—either by flickering Dong Zhou with blink effects to hit multiple creatures over time, or by swinging in early and often while your opponents are weakened.

Build around creatures that benefit from entering the battlefield repeatedly, since blink synergies turn Dong Zhou into a repeatable damage machine. You're not trying to go infinite; instead, you're grinding opponents down with chip damage from their own board while attacking in the red zone. This deck is part aggressive damage dealer, part political tool—you can choose which opponent's best creature to turn against them, which makes for fun table dynamics.
