Strategy

How this commander wants to play

Rohgahh is a unique commander that wants to generate and protect an army of Kobolds of Kher Keep tokens. The core gameplan revolves around repeatedly paying {R}{R}{R} each turn to keep control of your Kobolds, which get +2/+2 from Rohgahh. You're building around cost reduction, ramp, and token generation to make the upkeep payments manageable while building a growing board of evasive threats.

To win, you'll attack with your boosted Kobold army for commander damage or straight-up combat kills. The deck thrives on mana acceleration (especially red ramp like Weathered Wayfarer, Cragcrown Pathway, and mana rocks) so you can reliably pay the upkeep cost without getting stuck. Key synergies include token doublers that multiply your Kobold army and sacrifice outlets that turn your forced-tap tokens into value before you lose them.
