The Commander

Haste

When Cloud enters, attach up to one target Equipment you control to it.

Whenever Cloud attacks, draw a card for each equipped attacking creature you control. Then if Cloud has power 7 or greater, create two Treasure tokens.

Guide

Gameplan

Cloud is a Naya equipment-voltron deck that suits him up the moment he enters, then swings to draw cards and crack out Treasures once he hits 7 power. You ramp into him, stack Equipment to grow his power and trigger card draw across your team, and close games with oversized commander damage or a wide equipped board.

Strengths

Built-in card advantage every combat scales with how many equipped creatures attack
Treasure generation at 7+ power refuels into more Equipment and spells
Haste plus the free attach on ETB means immediate pressure even after a reset
Naya colors give the best Equipment payoffs, ramp, and combat tricks

Weaknesses

Heavily commander-dependent; without Cloud the deck stalls and recasts get expensive
Vulnerable to spot removal, bounce, and edicts that strip your suited-up threat
Equipment-matters strategies are slow if Equipment is removed or the board is wiped
Needs setup turns to assemble equip costs and reach 7 power

Key Cards

Colossus Hammer — Cheap way to vault Cloud well past 7 power for Treasures and lethal commander damage.
Sigarda's Aid — Flash and free attach lets you move Equipment around at instant speed and protect tempo.
Puresteel Paladin — Free equips with metalcraft plus card draw turbocharge Cloud's attack triggers.
Stoneforge Mystic — Tutors and cheats your best Equipment into play to suit Cloud and the team.
Embercleave — Cheap to cast off a wide equipped board and instantly pushes Cloud to lethal trample damage.
Open the Armory — Finds the exact Equipment you need to enable attach triggers or close the game.

Upgrade Path

Prioritize cheap free-equip and equip-cost reducers (Puresteel Paladin, Sigarda's Aid, Brass Squire) plus tutors like Stoneforge Mystic and Stonehewer Giant to assemble your package fast. Add protection (Swiftfoot Boots, Lightning Greaves, Heroic Intervention) so removal doesn't strand you, and lean on power-boosting Equipment like Colossus Hammer and Embercleave to reliably clear 7 power for Treasures. Round out with Naya ramp and a Sword of Feast and Famine / Sword of Fire and Ice suite for protection and extra value.
