Strategy
War Machine is a red equipment-focused aggressor that turns your modified creatures into double-strike threats. Every attack triggers a burst of damage as your equipped and enchanted creatures hit twice, making even modest board states lethal. You're looking to stack equipment and counters onto a few key creatures, then swing for overwhelming damage. The strategy is straightforward: ramp into equipment, attach them to flyers or evasive threats, and watch double strike multiply your damage output. Since War Machine flies and benefits from its own modifications, you can make it a primary threat while supporting a secondary modified creature.
