How Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad decks play in EDH
Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad is a Mardu commander in white, black and red costing RWB, and its legendary creature - human assassin line shapes the whole deck around it. It makes tokens, so the deck wants ways to pump a wide board and to turn spare bodies into cards or damage. It works out of the graveyard, so self-mill and cheap recursion effectively become extra card advantage. The cards below are the ones Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad decks actually play most often, grouped by the job they do.
