mirko reanimator by blastocyst

Format: Commander

Commander: Mirko, Obsessive Theorist

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Mirko, Obsessive Theorist is a surveil-driven reanimator that grows by +1/+1 per surveil and reanimates a creature with power less than Mirko at each end step with a finality counter. Primary plan is to fill the graveyard with Entomb, Buried Alive, Vile Entomber and surveil engines, grow Mirko to 5-7 power, then recur value ETBs like Gray Merchant of Asphodel, Archon of Cruelty, Massacre Wurm and Jin-Gitaxias. Secondary paths are hard-cast clones (Clever Impersonator, Phyrexian Metamorph, Spark Double, Auton Soldier) copying opponents' threats or your own Gary for drain loops, and a late Rise of the Dark Realms. Mirko is the repeatable engine, not a combo piece; no hidden commander exists.
