Gandalf Steals the Show
deck Gandalf, Shadow's Foe
Aug 12, 2026
The goal of the deck is to use Gandalf’s powerful ETB to draw cards and trigger effects like Roil Elemental to steal opponents creatures. Notable reprints include Amulet of Vigor and Tiller Engine. Deck includes many reprints from the Lord of the Rings set and a few new cards from the Hobbit set. Panharmonicon and Starfield Vocalist also increase the ETB value of Gandalf. Backup win condition could include making Gandalf unblockable and getting commander damage wins in lower brackets. Upgrade paths could include Displacer Kitten and fetch lands to trigger landfall abilities more consistently.
