Windfall: The Original Wheel
Windfall is a concise wheel effect that reshuffles hands across the table and can reset a stalled game state. On resolution each player discards their hand then draws cards equal to the greatest number discarded. That makes Windfall an efficient way to refill your grip when you time it after an opponent has emptied theirs or when you have a full graveyard plan ready to benefit from the mass discard.
In multiplayer Commander Windfall trades card advantage for parity and political leverage. Cast it when you can capitalize on the new card distribution or when opponents have fewer cards to minimize their gain. The card rewards timing and reads well in decks that exploit discards or want to sculpt a late game draw step.
