Lynde, Cheerful Tormentor by JackieJerky

Format: Commander

Commander: Lynde, Cheerful Tormentor

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Lynde, Cheerful Tormentor is the deck's engine: she moves Curses from yourself to opponents, draws two cards, and rebuys Curses from the graveyard. The primary plan is stacked Curse attrition-Curse of Misfortunes next to Curse of Thirst and Curse of Fool's Wisdom-making every upkeep and draw step into life loss. Obeka, Splitter of Seconds acts as a quasi-hidden commander by adding extra upkeep steps, and Sphinx of the Second Sun does the same. Secondary paths are constellation drainers and the slow Demonic Pact + Harmless Offering combo. There is no fast one-shot finisher; the deck wins by compounding Curse triggers.
