Magic: The Gathering - Warhammer 40k Commander Deck - The Ruinous Power
The Warmaster of Chaos and its greatest champion, Abaddon the Despoiler is the leader of the Chaos Space Marines, a horrific corruption of the super soldiers that so famously represent the Imperium of Man. True to his loyalty to Chaos, Abaddon's ability in Magic is highly random, granting cascade to spells that cost less than the total amount of life lost this turn by your opponents. While you do need to jump through hoops to make your opponents lose life, simply saving your big plays for after combat in the second main phase could allow you to cascade off of some of the deck's bigger cards and hit some spicy bombs.
It helps that this deck has a surprisingly high mana curve, with lots of expensive spells to cascade off of. Being able to cast one spell and get another for free helps counteract a few of the problems with this deck, notably its somewhat lacking land base for such big spells, and the deal is made even sweeter with some of the enters-the-battlefield effects you could be unexpectedly triggering.
