Strategy notes
Valduk budget is a mono-red Voltron/token aggro Commander deck built around Valduk, Keeper of the Flame. The main plan is to load Valduk up with lots of cheap Equipment and Auras, then move to combat so he creates a swarm of 3/1 Elemental tokens with trample and haste each turn.
The deck wins by either:
- Overwhelming combat damage from Valduk plus his temporary Elementals
- Burning the table out with token payoffs like Impact Tremors, Witty Roastmaster, and Goblin Bombardment
- Occasionally landing a big lethal swing with pump/double-strike effects like Temur Battle Rage, Unleash Fury, or Seize the Day
Key synergies include:
- Low-cost gear like Bonesplitter, Short Sword, Skullclamp, Bloodforged Battle-Axe, and Hero’s Blade to maximize Valduk triggers
- Evasion/protection from Lightning Greaves, Swiftfoot Boots, Whispersilk Cloak, Trailblazer’s Boots, and Rogue’s Passage to keep
