Enchantment

As this enchantment enters, choose Mardu or Jeskai.
• Mardu — If a creature attacking causes a triggered ability of a permanent you control to trigger, that ability triggers an additional time.
• Jeskai — At the beginning of your upkeep, create a 1/1 red Goblin creature token. It gains lifelink and haste until end of turn.

Windcrag Siege card art
Windcrag Siege lets you chain combat steps, and in the right shell that's a game-ending engine — Hellkite Charger has been doing this for years, but Windcrag Siege staples the effect to a permanent that snowballs on its own. The cost is real: you need creatures swinging and mana open after combat, which means it blanks in slower or controlling builds.

Otharri, Suns' Glory generates Experience counters on attack, so Windcrag Siege's additional combat steps mean more counters and more Rebel tokens in a single turn cycle.

Commander is where Windcrag Siege belongs — the format's longer games give you time to set up the mana and board presence the card demands, and the attack-trigger ecosystem in Mardu and Naya makes the extra combat steps punishing. In competitive 60-card formats like Modern and Pioneer, extra-combat enchantments at this cost are too slow and too conditional to matter unless you're deep in a dedicated combo shell. Standard legality means it's technically in the pool, but combat-step engines rarely survive at that power level without redundancy. Legacy and Vintage have faster, cheaper ways to take extra turns or generate infinite combat, so Windcrag Siege won't see play there outside of casual tables.
