Raff, Weatherlight Stalwart

Raff, Weatherlight Stalwart is a tempo-focused commander that rewards you for casting instant and sorcery spells while generating card advantage. The deck wants to build a small but resilient creature base, then tap those creatures whenever you cast spells to draw extra cards. This creates a virtuous cycle: more spells mean more draws, which means more spells in hand. You're essentially playing a spell-focused deck that doesn't empty your hand, letting you hold up interaction while advancing your board.

The core gameplan is straightforward: play efficient creatures early, cast instants and sorceries to trigger Raff's ability, and tap your creatures to refuel. Your deck runs heavy on cantrips, card draw, and cheap interaction like removal and counterspells. The activated ability adds resilience and a potential combat boost when you need to push damage through. You win by amassing card advantage and resources until you can either swing through with a growing team or finish with a spell-heavy finisher.
