Zurgo Helmsmasher - Taking very enthusiastic walks

Alright, well. So, this is my Zurgo Helmsmasher. I have a personal rule to never make a basic "swing with one big guy" commander decks, so much like my Vorosh deck, I tried to make it interesting.

Part of it is a basic Zurgo voltron type thing, but the twist to this is that it's Indestructible Legends tribal with several sorcery speed board wipes. It's also got some extra combat step cards to make things a bit spicier.

And of course, you can equip Assault Suit on Zurgo and he can take a Very Enthusiastic Walk around the table.

I love that you're strapping assault suit onto Zurgo! Genius!

pariah works amazingly if you're running a ton of dudes that won't die

I love me some Zurgo. Assault Suit is a card I also use in my Zurgo deck. Instead of a multi-creature Voltron build though I run Zurgo solo with almost 30 various boardwipes. One of the best cards to use with Zurgo is Chandra's Ignition . If played on a board with enough creatures, Zurgo will get enough counters that he can then 1 shot someone with commander damage.

If you are also playing indestructible tribal, a resolving Jokulhaups is pretty much an instant win. MLD is usually fine when it ends the game. Your playgroup may feel different, but mine is ok with that.

Chandra's Ignition with Zurgo? Oh, you cheeky waffle...

I love it.

Updated with some improvements. I really need to get Embercleave into the deck and I'm not sure what to swap.
