Emet Selch by Skandaluur101

Format: Commander

Commander: Emet-Selch, Unsundered // Hades, Sorcerer of Eld

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

The deck is a Dimir graveyard-mill control/combo build that uses Emet-Selch, Unsundered as a self-mill loot engine to transform into Hades, Sorcerer of Eld and cast spells from the graveyard. The primary win is a mill/drain loop: Duskmantle Guildmage plus Mindcrank, usually kicked off by a cheap mill spell. Bruvac the Grandiloquent plus kicked Maddening Cacophony is a clean second kill, while Syr Konrad/Dreadhound and reanimation of huge threats provide drain and combat fallbacks. Emet-Selch of the Third Seat functions as a hidden commander, letting the deck re-cast instants/sorceries from the graveyard. The deck is slower and value-based, not a fast all-in combo, but can kill in one long turn once the loop is online.
