Rassilon, the War President

Rassilon is all about turning your exile zone into a resource engine. Every upkeep, you're milling yourself and getting free plays off the top of your library—essentially card advantage baked into your commander. The real payoff comes from your noncreature spells, which get conspire attached to them. This means every instant or sorcery you cast from exile can be copied for free if you tap two creatures that share a color with it, effectively doubling your spell effects and card advantage.

Your gameplan revolves around building a stable of mana-efficient creatures (especially blue and black ones) that enable conspire copies while supporting whatever spell-based strategy you're building. You're incentivized to lean into cheap, high-impact spells—card draw, removal, and effects that scale with spell count. The life loss from your upkeep is a minor cost compared to the value you're generating. You win by grinding out card advantage and copying spells until you've established an overwhelming board or combo finish, then closing out with combat damage or a decisive copied spell.
