Commander: Gisa and Geralf

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Gisa and Geralf is a self-mill Zombie value deck. The primary plan is to fill the graveyard, then use Gisa and Geralf to cast one Zombie per turn from the graveyard, building a recursive board of menace-granted Zombies and flying beaters. Secondary paths are Liliana, the Last Hope's emblem, Dark Salvation token bursts, and Tree of Perdition setting a single opponent to 13 life. The commander is the engine; there is no hidden commander. The deck is slow and grindy, with no fast combo or finisher, so it wins through incremental combat damage over many turns. It can also use The Water Crystal to mill opponents, but that is a slow alternate payoff rather than a primary line.
