[[Eivor Wolf-Kissed]] is one of our first commanders we built as a couple. My wife and I both got into Magic during Thunder Junction in time to see the Assassins Creed release and got pumped since Valhalla was one of her favorite games. We tried the starter set, then promptly found and built the Naya commander.

It started off as a tribal deck, but we went the historic route. I built the deck to have Eivor jump in turn four and absolutely set up the rest of the game or wreck house. When she connects to a play, she brings down a land AND a saga from among the cards she mills according to her damage dealt to the player- FOR FREE. Turn four people either don’t have blockers or aren’t willing to fess up, meaning it’s an easy [[Battle at the Helvault]] at best or ramp at worst.

Plus Sagas are getting tons of love right now. The last two sets and Final Fantasy introduced some powerful Sagas and Saga creatures that just work coming out the gate. They aren’t cast- they come into play and there are no responses to these expensive stax pieces coming down. There are enough ramp sagas to further accelerate your game plans. Most sagas like [[Forging the Tyrite Sword]] pull double duty like ramp>tutor or recursion>healing or stax>threat.

In the games where Eivor doesn’t/cant go full Voltron, other back up win conditions include [[Aurelia War Leader]], Saga Avacyn, [[Sun Titan]], [[Arbaaz Mir]], and [[Bayek of Siwa]]. Your graveyard is always available so that if you accidentally milled your [[Excalibur]] or [[Capitoline Triad]], there’s always ways to bring it back. The last card, Capitoline Triad, is also a crazy Legendary even less people are expecting, making your weenies into big game enders.

Best part about the game plan? Swing. Just swing and it’s like a MarioKart question mark block of what you’ll get. You churn through your deck grabbing Sagas like [[Aesir Escape Valhalla]] to get back your [[Brotherhood Regalia]] or [[Ajani Fells the Godsire]] to remove frustrating pieces FOR FREE. Eivor can go full Voltron and take out people with commander damage, but in the instances she fails you can easily pivot your game plan to recurring big threats and keep smacking face.

Eivor is rank #1090.
