Sisay, Weatherlight Captain
Sisay, Weatherlight Captain is one of the most powerful commanders in cEDH. Her ability to search your library for a legendary permanent with a specific mana value and put it onto the battlefield makes her an incredibly versatile toolbox commander. Sisay decks are built around finding the right legendary permanent for any situation: a win condition, a piece of interaction, or a combo piece. With access to all five colors, Sisay can run the most powerful cards in the game. The strategy is to use Sisay's ability to assemble game-winning combos or find the perfect answer to any threat.
Deck Strategies
Legendary Combo: Use Sisay to find combo pieces like Thassa's Oracle and Demonic Consultation for an infinite combo. Or use her to find Karmic Guide and Reveillark for an infinite loop.
Toolbox Control: Use Sisay to find the perfect answer for any situation. Need removal? Find Swords to Plowshares. Need card draw? Find Rhystic Study. Need protection? Find Teferi's Protection.
Stax: Use Sisay to find stax pieces like The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale, Winter Orb, or Trinisphere. Lock down the game and prevent opponents from playing.
Value Engines: Use Sisay to find value engines like The Ur-Dragon, Atraxa, or Kenrith, the Returned King. These legendaries provide ongoing value and card advantage.
