Deck overview

This Golgari Phyrexian deck builds a board of Incubator tokens and transforms them into Phyrexian creatures. Glissa, Herald of Predation is the engine: she incubates 2 twice or transforms all incubators each combat and gives Phyrexians first strike and deathtouch. The primary plan wins through combat with large Phyrexians grown by proliferate and counter doublers. A secondary line uses Vraska, Betrayal's Sting ultimate to give nine poison counters, doubled by Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider. Yawgmoth, Thran Physician acts as a hidden commander for draw and proliferate, supported by Doubling Season, Hardened Scales and Evolution Sage. The deck grinds value with Necropotence and rebuilds from the graveyard.
