Bubonic Plague by user9161856

Format: Commander

Commander: Marrow-Gnawer

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Marrow-Gnawer is the sole engine: the deck plays a critical mass of Rat Colony, uses cost reducers to cast several per turn, then activates Marrow-Gnawer to multiply the horde and win through combat or drain. There is no double-faced or hidden commander. Secondary lines are Thrumming Stone ripple chains and mass reanimation from Patriarch's Bidding, Bloodline Bidding, and Rise of the Dark Realms. Ayara, Mirkwood Bats, Zulaport Cutthroat, and Plague of Vermin form a repeatable drain loop, while Coat of Arms and Akroma's Memorial make the swarm lethal in one attack.
