The Combo
Begin the combo with Nine Lives and Herald of Eternal Dawn on the battlefield.
- Cast Fractured Identity targeting your Nine Lives – exiling it and giving any opponents a copy.
- Nine Lives leaves the battlefield, however you cannot lose the game due to Herald of Eternal Dawn.
- Cast Austere Command, destroying all enchantments.
- When those Nine Lives leave the battlefield, they each trigger causing your opponents to lose the game!
This combo is perfect for Zedruu decks, and fits nicely into Kwain or Grand Arbiter Augustin IV decks. And there is always more than one way to fracture a cat: Platinum Angel and Angel’s Grace are great swaps for Herald of Eternal Dawn, and Austere Command can be replaced with Cleansing Nova or Merciless Eviction.
