The general idea of this commander is that it turns instances of 1 damage into 3 damage, and this deck's version of that is as a \"spellslinger\" style deck that focuses on cantrips and payoff for those cantrips. You can see the other version of this deck I've built "},{"attributes":{"link":"https://archidekt.com/decks/6636496/frank_reynolds_weenie_lord"},"insert":"over here"},{"insert":".\n\nWin-Cons"},{"attributes":{"header":1},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"The primary win-con of this deck is burning the entire table as fast as possible while setting up for big turns that do large amount of damage \"out of nowhere\".

With this, it's pretty easy to set up pingers in such a way that you're draining the table for 3, 6, even 12 per turn and gaining at least that much per-ping, quickly outpacing them.\n\nHow-To: Stacking Pings"},{"attributes":{"header":1},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"You're going to want as many pingers on the board at all times, and those pingers in this deck for the most part are payoff for casting various non-creature spells.

The most impactful way of doing this would be with "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Mizzix's Mastery"}},{"insert":" overloaded, but you can achieve similar results with "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Mana Geyser"}},{"insert":" or "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Jeska's Will"}},{"insert":" and "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Past in Flames"}},{"insert":".\n\nThere are some creatures that benefit spell recursion as well.

"},{"insert":{"card-link":"Exalted Flamer of Tzeentch"}},{"insert":" benefits pinging as well as spell-slinging by giving you a random instant/sorcery from your graveyard at upkeep to keep the value train going.\n\nAlso useful is "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Saheeli Rai"}},{"insert":" which pings your opponents for 1 as a +1 loyalty ability, with a bonus scry effect that can help you fish for the next card you need. As an added bonus, her -2 ability can copy one of your pingers, making the effects stack even higher if you plan on casting multiple spells.\n\nOther Fun Cards & Interactions"},{"attributes":{"header":1},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"\nChandra's Incinerator & Repercussion Combo"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"One fun combo that comes up sometimes is "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Chandra's Incinerator"}},{"insert":" with "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Repercussion"}},{"insert":". Either of these cards on their own are amazing value by letting your translate creature/player damage into the other, and it's important to know how the triggers work. For example, with Incinerator, if you deal 1 damage to an opponent, you get two triggers: 1 damage from Chandra's Incinerator to a creature, and 2 damage from Ghyrson. You want to stack these so that the Incinerator's trigger resolves firstm and the same goes for Repercussion's trigger targeting the opponent. With just one of these enchantments out, that's 1 damage to the primary target + 2 from Ghyrson, and the secondary target takes a total of 5 (1 damage, plus 2 from Ghyrson, plus 2 from Ghyrson hitting the primary target). So with both of these enchantments out, the ideal way for them to resolve is by stacking the 1-damage triggers on top of each other as much as possible.\n\nThe net result is, by prioritizing the 1-damage pings, you will get the maximum number of Ghyrson triggers for at least 3x your opponents' toughness on board in non-combat damage. So for example, if you hit an opponent for 1 damage, instead of shortcutting that to 3 damage with Ghyrson out, you would have Incinerator deal 1 damage to a creature, then back to the opponent, then back to a creature, until all of their creatures are dead. Then you would take that many 1-damage pings (1 + total toughness of their board) and multiply THAT by 3 to get the total damage with Ghyrson. So with 10 toughness on the board, that's 33 damage to the opponent's face. Most importantly, if you can pull this combo off if one of their creatures is indestructible, that means they're likely dead without a backup plan, even with infinite life.\n\nChandra's Spitfire"},{"attributes":{"header":2},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"One unsung hero so far of this deck is "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Chandra's Spitfire"}},{"insert":" which will grow much larger than your opponents might think at first if they're unfamiliar. If for example you deal 1 damage to each opponent, that's 6 total triggers of its ability, giving it +18 power until end of turn. You can use this to effectively swing for lethal mid-game if you play it right.\n"}]}
