What an Ivora, Insatiable Heir deck wants
The plan the Forge derives for this commander: the roles it fills and how many of each.
- 6× Make the commander connect — a body that never deals combat damage never triggers
- 6× Exile a permanent you control and return it — the button a value-ETB deck presses
- 10× Lets YOU discard on demand — looting, rummaging, discard costs — for a commander that rewards your own discards
- 8× A permanent whose value is in its enter-the-battlefield trigger — the payload a blink deck reuses
- 4× A team pump that actually pumps tokens
- 14× Put +1/+1 counters on creatures you control, or multiply the ones already there
- 12× Make creature tokens — a static anthem or a go-wide commander needs a board to be wide
- 5× Actually remove one problem permanent — preventing its damage is not removing it
- 1× Answer a whole board at once
