The Magic: the Gathering / Warhammer 40k commander decks continue to hold interest of players of both games. The Ruinous Powers deck focuses on the Chaos faction, full of Chaos Marines and various Daemons from beyond the Warp.

Using the default commander, Abaddon the Despoiler, the deck seeks to gain card advantage and generate value by giving spells Cascade. While it only works on your turn, it can affect many cards in your hand, depending on how much damage you do to opponents each turn. As it has good stats and trample, the commander can be a source of damage for this effect.
