The Commander

Haste

Nontoken creatures you control have "{T}: Create a token that's a copy of target token you control that entered this turn."

Guide

Gameplan

Flood the board with token copies, then exponentially multiply them by tapping your nontoken creatures to copy tokens that entered this turn. Make a few big tokens early, then chain copies into a massive go-wide army for a single alpha strike. Ghired turns every token into a snowball that overwhelms the table by turn five or six.

Strengths

  • Explosive, exponential token generation that can produce dozens of bodies in one turn
  • Cheap three-mana commander with haste lets you start copying immediately
  • Copies the best printed token in play, including powerful ETB tokens or huge fatties
  • Naturally wide boards punish slow removal and reward overrun effects

Weaknesses

  • Heavily reliant on having both nontoken creatures and tokens that entered the same turn
  • Vulnerable to board wipes that erase the whole token army instantly
  • The combo loop needs untapped creatures, so a single Cyclonic Rift sets you back hard
  • Slow to close if you lack a finisher to convert the wide board into damage

Key Cards

  • Wolverine Riders — Makes a token every upkeep so you always have a fresh token to copy with Ghired's ability.
  • Mondrak, Glory Dominus — Doubles every token you create, including all of Ghired's copies, for absurd board growth.
  • Anointed Procession — Token doubling stacks with Ghired's copy ability to exponentially blow out token counts.
  • Craterhoof Behemoth — Turns a wide token army into a lethal alpha strike in one swing.
  • Intangible Virtue — Pumps your token horde and grants vigilance so they can attack and still copy.
  • Cathars' Crusade — Every token entering pumps your whole team, snowballing alongside Ghired's copies.

Upgrade Path

Add token doublers (Mondrak, Anointed Procession, Parallel Lives) and ETB token engines to maximize Ghired's copy loops, then include untap enablers to combo off in one turn. Prioritize a couple of reliable finishers like Craterhoof Behemoth and Triumph of the Hordes so wide boards convert to wins. Tighten the mana base with fast ramp (Sol Ring, Rampant Growth, dorks) and add protection like Heroic Intervention to guard against the board wipes that prey on token decks.

Archetypes

  • Tokens — Ghired's entire ability revolves around copying tokens that entered this turn, making go-wide his default plan.
  • Aristocrats — Endless token bodies fuel sacrifice engines like Blood Artist and Zulaport Cutthroat for incremental drain.
  • Combo — With token doublers plus untap effects, Ghired can create arbitrarily large boards in a single turn.
  • Stompy/Aggro — Big copied tokens plus anthems pressure the table with sheer combat power.
