Commander: Horobi, Death's Wail

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Horobi, Death's Wail makes every targeted spell or ability read 'destroy target creature.' This deck is a mono-black removal-control deck: ramp into Horobi, then use cheap repeatable targeting outlets-Hex Parasite, Scuttlemutt, Retribution of the Ancients, Bloodthirsty Blade, Liquimetal Coating-to kill any creature, with Arcane Lighthouse, Detection Tower, and Shadowspear breaking hexproof. Deaths fuel Morbid Opportunist, Harvester of Souls, Gisa, and Revel in Riches. The primary finish is a giant Gray Merchant or Torment of Hailfire, with Rise of the Dark Realms as a mass-reanimation alternate; Tetzimoc is both a board-wipe and a secondary target engine. The deck is powerful against creature decks, but it has no counterspell protection and very little artifact/enchantment removal.
