Format: Commander

Commander: Venser, Corpse Puppet

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Venser, Corpse Puppet pilots a Dimir poison/proliferate deck. The primary plan is to put one global poison counter on every opponent with Prologue to Phyresis, Ichor Rats, Infectious Inquiry, Vraska's Fall, or Phyresis Outbreak, then treat each proliferate as a three-player clock toward ten poison. Venser's trigger creates The Hollow Sentinel and gives lifelink/flying to artifact attackers, while toxic 1 makes the commander itself a poison vector. The faster alternate path is the Dross Scorpion and Throne of Geth loop with Venser, creating infinite proliferations; Scheming Aspirant and poison counters then close the game. There is no hidden commander; the deck is built around the hollow token generation and poison pressure.
