Anti-Venom (Bracket 4) by user1938968

Format: Commander

Commander: Anti-Venom, Horrifying Healer

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Anti-Venom, Horrifying Healer is a mono-white damage-redirection control deck. Its primary win is an infinite damage loop built from Phyrexian Vindicator or Stuffy Doll plus Guilty Conscience, with Pariah or Pariah's Shield redirecting damage and Angel's Trumpet, Wave of Reckoning, or Dawnsire, Sunstar Dreadnought providing the first hit. The commander is a recursion engine and eventual voltron piece: his cast trigger rebuys a key creature and any damage he absorbs becomes +1/+1 counters. Secondary paths are equipment/aura voltron, white flyer tokens, and Dawnsire as a 20/20 flier. No hidden commander; the deck is built around the two damage-loop engines rather than around either face of a transforming commander.
