Commander: Tom, Bert, and William

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a Golgari midrange sacrifice and stompy deck built around Tom, Bert, and William. The commander is a repeatable sac outlet that turns high-power creatures into card advantage (draw equal to power, then discard), and it self-replaces as an artifact when it dies, keeping a body on board. The 99 supports this with dense ramp, oversized threats (Yargle and Multani, Ghalta, Primal Hunger, Lord of Extinction, Daemogoth Titan), classic reanimation (Animate Dead, Reanimate, Xu-Ifit, Osteoharmonist), and death/discard payoffs (Greater Good, Bone Miser, Syr Konrad, the Grim, Psychosis Crawler, The Skullspore Nexus). Primary wins come from combat with trampling giants, table-wide drains via Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord or draw-punishers, and recursive board swings off Living Death. The deck plays as a grindy value engine that converts corpses into cards and then into lethal power.
