Glarb 1 by Steffen

Format: Commander

Commander: Glarb, Calamity's Augur

Bracket: 5

Deck overview

Sultai control-combo built around Glarb's topdeck manipulation and surveil. The primary plan is a compact Thassa's Oracle win: cast Oracle, then Demonic Consultation or Divining Witch to exile the library, or use Doomsday to stack a pile. Backup lines are Chain of Smog + Witherbloom Apprentice for infinite drain and a clunkier Gray Merchant + Rite of Replication. Glarb provides card selection, repeatable surveil, and lets the deck cast expensive cards from the top, though none of the combos require it. There is no hidden commander; the true finishing engine is the Oracle/Consultation package.
