Commander deckGRUW
Human Torch
Cast cheap noncreature spells before combat to give Human Torch flying, haste, and double strike, then pump his power and pay WURG on attack to burn out the entire table in a single explosive swing.

Deck anatomy
What this list actually runs on: how cheaply it casts things, and whether it has enough ramp, card draw and interaction to keep up at the table. Each block is one card — hover for its name.
Mana curve · 62 nonland cards
The working parts
Counted from Scryfall’s community card tags, not from the builder’s own labels. A card that does two jobs counts twice, so these add up to more than the deck. The hatched band is a common rule of thumb, not a law — combo decks run leaner, battlecruiser decks heavier.
