Strategy
Obeka is all about stealing and abusing other players' turns while controlling the game state. Your core gameplan is to generate extra turns for yourself or your opponents, then use Obeka's ability to end those turns prematurely—cutting off their best effects, forcing them to discard, and resetting combat. This is especially powerful with cards like extra turn spells and theft effects, where you can steal a creature, swing with it, then end the turn before your opponent gets anything back.
The deck wins through a combination of commander damage (Obeka is a 3/4 flyer), creature damage amplified by stolen permanents, and chip damage from repeated turn manipulation. You'll be playing a tempo-control game where you're denying opponents their full turns while advancing your own board. This works best in multiplayer where you can spread the pain around and keep everyone off-balance. The turn-ending mechanic is also fantastic for dodging board wipes and forced sacrifices aimed at you.
