[Primer] Army of Amaurot - Emet-Selch's Top 30 Dimir Hits of All Time by deadpixels
Format: Commander
Commander: Emet-Selch, Unsundered // Hades, Sorcerer of Eld
Bracket: 3
Deck overview
Emet-Selch is a UB self-mill reanimator deck built around flipping to Hades, Sorcerer of Eld and casting spells out of the graveyard every turn. The front face supplies repeatable draw/discard and the transform condition; the back face is the true engine. The primary plan is to fill the graveyard quickly, transform Emet into Hades, and use that repeatable access to replay value demons, tutors, and mass reanimation. Secondary paths include hardcasting big demons, Breach of the Multiverse, Living Death, and finishing with Summon: Bahamut's Mega Flare, Gray Merchant devotion drain, or Summon: Primal Odin. There is no hidden commander; Sakashima is a flexible clone rather than a build-around. Commander dependency is moderate: the reanimator shell can function without Emet, but loses its repeatable cast-from-graveyard engine.
