Strategy
Tinybones, Pocket Nuisance is your commander for a discard-focused deck that pressures opponents while filling your own graveyard. The goal is to force everyone to discard cards—yours and theirs—then punish them with Tinybones' damage trigger. Each discard event pings all opponents, and with the right setup, you'll rack up damage quickly while building toward your own gameplan. This is a tempo-focused strategy where you're both disrupting and damaging simultaneously.
The deck thrives on symmetrical discard effects like Dark Deal, Necrogen Mists, and Oppression that trigger Tinybones repeatedly each turn cycle. You'll also slot in selective discard like Hymn to Tourach and Syphilis to squeeze value while controlling what opponents keep. Since you're discarding too, lean into graveyard synergies—Vengevine, Unearth creatures, and flashback spells turn your own discards into resources. Your win condition is chip damage from Tinybones combined with combat pressure, backed by inevitability from the graveyard.
