About this deck

Toad's personal favorite, and it's pure evil. Affinity makes Imskir Iron-Eater dirt cheap, so commander tax barely matters and you actually want him to die and come back. Turbo him out, draw a fistful of cards, then strap on Cranial Plating and fling him for a huge chunk of damage. Give him lifelink and his card draw won't take you down with it.

How it plays

Imskir Iron-Eater: Affinity for artifacts (This spell costs 1 less to cast for each artifact you control.) When Imskir Iron-Eater enters the battlefield, you draw X cards and you lose X life, where X is half the number of artifacts you control, rounded down. 3R, Sacrifice an artifact: Imskir deals damage equal to the sacrificed artifact's mana value to any target.
