Deck overview

This Sauron, the Dark Lord deck is a Grixis value-midrange strategy built around the Ring tempts you and amass Orcs mechanics. The primary game plan involves casting the commander to generate card advantage via his triggered ability - whenever the Ring tempts you, you may discard your hand to draw four cards - while building a board of growing Nazgul, Wraith tokens, and Army tokens. The deck leverages massive redundancy through nine copies of Nazgul to repeatedly trigger the Ring, and supplements this with other ring-tempt cards like Call of the Ring and Fiery Inscription. Wins come from overwhelming combat damage from large Wraiths and Orcs, backed by value engines such as The One Ring, Smaug, Wicked Worm, and There and Back Again for explosive mana. There are no infinite combos; the deck relies on incremental advantage and board presence to close out games.
