Legendary Creature — Human Avatar Soldier
Jenova Cells — Whenever Sephiroth attacks, you may put a cell counter on target creature. Until end of turn, each modified creature you control has base power and toughness 7/5. (Equipment, Auras you control, and counters are modifications.) The Reunion — {3}, Sacrifice a modified creature: Return this card from your graveyard to the battlefield tapped.
“Pump modified creatures with attack triggers; swing for lethal with 7/5s.”
Sephiroth is a modified-matters commander that turns your creatures into threats while rewarding you for pumping them up. Your core gameplan is to attack with Sephiroth, slap cell counters on creatures to make them "modified," then use his Jenova Cells ability to pump all your modified creatures to 7/5 until end of turn. This creates explosive turns where a modest board suddenly becomes lethal. You're not just attacking with one 7/5; you're turning your whole team into brickwall-sized threats.
The deck wants to be aggressive and midrangey, leveraging cheap creatures, equipment, and +1/+1 counter synergies to build a modified army. Cards like Stoneforge Mystic, Puresteel Paladin, and Nazahn lock in consistent equipment tutoring and triggers, while creatures with built-in counters (Hardened Scales, Ozolith) help you snowball. Sephiroth's secondary ability is a late-game reset button—sacrifice a pumped creature to reanimate him tapped, then attack again next turn.
You win through combat damage, pounding opponents into the red zone with your oversized modified creatures. The deck is forgiving to pilot and rewards synergy without requiring infinite combos, making it perfect for casual-to-mid tables.

Skip pricey equipment like Batterskull; use Basilisk Collar, Shadowspear, and Blackblade Reforged as budget hits. Swap Stoneforge Mystic for Tattered Apparition or Steelshaper's Gift.
