Shizo, Death’s Storehouse gives a black deck a land that can help a legendary attacker get through blockers. It normally taps for black, or you can pay black and tap it to grant fear to a target legendary creature for the turn. Fear restricts blocking to artifact creatures and black creatures.

A commander carrying Sword of Feast and Famine can benefit when the remaining opposing blockers cannot block a creature with fear. Connecting then rewards the deck with the Sword’s trigger as well as combat damage. Shizo does not increase power or grant haste, and a board with black or artifact blockers may still stop the attack. Choose the target and defending player around the actual creatures available to block.

Combat payoffs need a dependable route to the defending player. Check flying blockers, available removal, and effects that prevent damage before committing every resource to one attacker. Haste can reduce the delay between deploying a threat and using it, while Equipment can make an existing creature more relevant without requiring a second expensive threat to survive an entire turn cycle.

The fear ability targets, so your own Lightning Greaves can prevent it from reaching a creature with shroud. Apply the abilities in a workable order if both cards are involved. Shizo remains an ordinary black source when evasion is unnecessary, making it useful without forcing the deck to commit every turn to attacking.
