Archetypes Donate / Group Slug — Iroh's combat trigger lets you repeatedly hand opponents harmful permanents like Bronze Bombshell and Steel Golem . Tokens / Go-Wide — The Ally tokens plus doublers and anthems build a wide, growing board to swing with. Politics — Gifting 'free' permanents makes you the table's favorite trade partner and buys defensive time.

When Iroh enters, create a Food token. At the beginning of combat on your turn, you may have target opponent gain control of target permanent you control. When you do, create a 1/1 white Ally creature token. Put a +1/+1 counter on that token for each permanent you own that your opponents control.
Iroh is a politics-and-donate commander that turns your permanents into weapons by handing them to opponents. Each combat you 'gift' a permanent away and bank a growing Ally token that gets +1/+1 for every permanent you own under opposing control. You either give away things that actively punish the new owner (Bronze Bombshell , Steel Golem ) or simply feed expendable permanents to balloon a single huge attacker, while leveraging deals and pillow-fort defenses to survive politically.Generates free value every turn: a body, +1/+1 counters, and political goodwill from gifting permanents.
Cheap three-mana commander that immediately replaces itself with a Food token and a combat trigger.
Excellent at table politics—players are happy to take your 'free' permanents, buying you time.
The big payoff lives on a token Ally, not the commander, so it's vulnerable to spot removal and board wipes.
Donating permanents permanently weakens your own board unless you can reclaim them.
RW lacks deep card draw and tutoring, so it can run out of gas.
Slow clock—needs several turns of donating to build a threatening Ally, and a single Wrath resets everything.
When the opponent you gifted it to can no longer keep it, it deals 7 damage—reusable removal/burn via Iroh's donation.
Gifting it locks an opponent out of casting creatures while still counting toward your Ally's counters.
Doubles every Ally token Iroh makes, giving you two large bodies instead of one. Doubles both the Ally tokens and the +1/+1 counters they enter with, snowballing the payoff.
Copies your big Ally onto your whole token board for an explosive alpha strike.
Floods the board with tokens you can donate or buff alongside the Ally plan.
Premier RW ramp/card advantage to fuel a color pair that otherwise struggles for resources.
