Ex-SOLDIER is a 100-card Commander deck led by Cloud, Ex-SOLDIER in the Naya color identity (white/red/green). TableCommander estimates this deck at bracket 4 — optimized / high-power.

The mainboard runs 27 creatures, 15 instants, 4 sorceries, 20 artifacts, 4 enchantments, and 30 lands, averaging 1.94 mana value across non-land cards. 93% of non-land cards cost 3 mana or less; 3% cost 5 or more.

Notable inclusions: 14 game changers (e.g. Mox Diamond, Chrome Mox, and Mana Vault), 2 fast mana (Mox Opal and Lotus Petal), 3 cheap tutors (Eladamri's Call, Steelshaper's Gift, and Open the Armory), and 5 tutors (e.g. Ranger-Captain of Eos, Cloud, Midgar Mercenary, and Imperial Recruiter). This deck is currently Commander-legal on TableCommander.
