Cloud, EX Soldier

Cloud, EX Soldier is a Naya (red/green/white) Equipment-based Voltron/Aggro Commander deck. Its main plan is to suit up a single threat—usually Cloud, Ex-SOLDIER or another efficient attacker—with powerful Equipment and win through big combat damage, often in just a few swings.

Key synergies center on:

• Cheating or reducing equip costs with cards like Ardenn, Sigarda’s Aid, Puresteel Paladin, Bruenor Battlehammer, Halvar, and Forge Anew
• Tutoring Equipment with Stoneforge Mystic, Open the Armory, Steelshaper’s Gift, Godo, and Fighter Class
• Card draw/value from Sram, Puresteel Paladin, Akiri, Skullclamp, and the various Sword triggers
