Nathan Drake, Treasure Hunter

Nathan Drake is a treasure-hunting rogue who turns combat into card advantage and mana flexibility. Every attack exiles cards from all libraries, letting you cast spells you'd normally never access while his first strike keeps him alive in combat. The deck leans into Izzet-style tempo plays—cheap evasive creatures and spells to enable early attacks, then converting those exile triggers into value. You're essentially playing a theft/exile-matters deck that generates both cards and color-fixing mana, letting you cast powerful spells from opponents' decks and your own.

The win plan blends aggressive commander damage with the flexibility to pivot into longer games. Nathan Drake's mana-fixing ability means you can cast almost anything exiled, so you'll naturally fill your hand with options. Pair him with effects that encourage or reward attacking (like extra combat spells or prowess creatures), and you'll snowball quickly. The deck thrives on efficient creatures with evasion, draw spells, and maybe a few sacrifice outlets to leverage temporary theft effects or exile synergies.

This is a tempo-focused build that rewards chip damage and smart sequencing. You're not trying to win on turn 4, but by turns 6–8 you'll have accumulated enough exiled cards, mana advantage, and board presence to close out games. It's simultaneously a commander-damage deck and a value deck—both angles work depending on the game state.
