Legendary Creature — Siren Pirate

Flying blue partner that makes a Treasure per opponent hit by Pirates, feeding cEDH combos and infinite damage loops.

Read more

Malcolm is a 2/2 flier for three. Whenever one or more Pirates you control deal damage to your opponents, you create a Treasure for each opponent dealt damage. He's a Pirate himself, so a single evasive hit ramps you, and a Pirate that pings every opponent makes three Treasures at once. Malcolm has partner, so he's usually the cheap blue half of a pair, with the second commander adding red or black for combo pieces.

In the recorded games, Malcolm was a common cEDH partner beside Kraum, Vial Smasher the Fierce and Tymna the Weaver. A frequent win was Glint-Horn Buccaneer, whose discard pings turned into Treasures. Another was Reckless Fireweaver made into a Pirate with Artificial Evolution, so each Treasure triggered more damage. Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker with Corridor Monitor was a backup combo. Underworld Breach and Doomsday also showed up, with Siren Stormtamer and cheap counters guarding the combo. Malcolm drew a lot of removal. It struggled when mana was short early, against Vexing Shusher and against faster combo decks.

How it feels to play against
