Wheel of Agony

Wheel of Agony is a Grixis (blue-black-red) Commander wheel/punisher deck, likely built around Nekusar, the Mindrazer as the primary game plan.

It aims to force everyone to draw lots of cards and repeatedly discard/refill their hands with effects like Wheel of Fortune, Windfall, Reforge the Soul, Echo of Eons, Dark Deal, and Teferi’s Puzzle Box, then punish those draws with cards such as Nekusar, Underworld Dreams, Sheoldred, the Apocalypse, Spiteful Visions, Fate Unraveler, Kederekt Parasite, Liliana’s Caress, and Megrim.

Key synergies include:

• Narset, Parter of Veils or Notion Thief plus wheel effects to strip opponents’ hands and lock in huge advantage.
• Niv-Mizzet, Parun, Psychosis Crawler, and The Locust God turning mass draws into damage or board presence.
• Waste Not generating value off forced discards.
• Strong protection and setup through fast mana, tutors, and free interaction.
