Ruhan of the Fomori

Gameplan

Ruhan is a 7/7 for 4 that you slam down and swing with every turn—you just don't fully control who he hits. Build around making that random attack matter by loading him with auras, equipment, and evasion, while Jeskai backs him up with control elements, extra combats, and damage doublers to close fast. The deck wins by turning an oversized body into a one-or-two-shot kill.

Key Cards

• Grappling Hook — Gives double strike and first strike, letting Ruhan two-shot any random opponent.
• Rogue's Passage — Makes Ruhan unblockable so the forced random attack always connects for full damage.
• Berserkers' Onslaught — Permanent double strike on attackers turns Ruhan into a 14-damage commander-damage threat.
• Aggravated Assault — Extra combat steps let you re-roll the random target and stack lethal damage.
• Swiftfoot Boots — Hexproof and haste protect your all-in commander and let him swing the turn he lands.
• Bear Umbra — Totem armor protects Ruhan from removal while untapping your lands for more spells post-attack.

Upgrade Path

Lean harder into Voltron with protection (Lightning Greaves, Whispersilk Cloak) and evasion so the random attack is never wasted, and add damage doublers plus extra-combat enablers like Aggravated Assault with untap engines (Sword of Feast and Famine, Bear Umbra). Improve your mana base with fast rocks (Signets, Talisman, Arcane Signet) and add efficient interaction (Swords to Plowshares, Cyclonic Rift) to defend the board and your lone threat.
