Deck overview

This competitive Golgari deck utilizes Sarulf, Realm Eater as a high-impact board control engine while executing lightning-fast combo finishes. Built to thrive in high-power and cEDH pods, the deck runs a maximum density of 0-1 CMC fast mana and top-tier tutors to assemble compact win conditions as early as Turn 2 to 3. Its primary win condition is the two-card combo of Witherbloom Apprentice and Chain of Smog, which drains the entire table in a single turn. As a robust backup, the deck features reanimation packages that assemble Necrotic Ooze with Phyrexian Devourer and Walking Ballista, or Hoarding Broodlord lines. When forced into a longer game, Sarulf, Realm Eater grows from opponent actions and repeatedly wipes low-CMC rocks, dorks, and stax pieces on upkeep, while hate pieces like Opposition Agent, Dauthi Voidwalker, and Orcish Bowmasters keep opponents off balance until a protected win window opens.
