cedh rats by Dieseldarrell77

Format: Commander

Commander: Karumonix, the Rat King

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This is a mono-black Rat-swarm combo deck built around Karumonix, the Rat King and an 18-copy Rat Colony package. The primary plan is to accelerate with rituals and artifacts, deploy Thrumming Stone, then cast one Rat Colony and let the Ripple chain free-cast the rest of the horde in a single turn. That board then closes the game either through raw damage, Karumonix's toxic, or Filth plus Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth swampwalk. A secondary infinite line runs through Mikaeus, the Unhallowed, Triskelion, and Phyrexian Tower. The commander is not strictly required: he is an ETB dig for Rats and a toxic lord, while the real engines live in the 99.
