Deck overview

This deck is a Dimir Zombie Tribal Midrange strategy commanded by Gisa and Geralf. The game plan revolves around stocking the graveyard through self-mill creatures and spells, then leveraging the commander's ability to cast Zombie creature spells directly from the graveyard once each turn. The deck generates card and board advantage through death-trigger payoffs like Undead Augur and Headless Rider, building a formidable board of recursive threats. It closes games by overwhelming the table with buffed Zombie tokens granted menace by Graf Harvest or through mass reanimation with Zombie Apocalypse, backed by life-drain triggers from Syr Konrad, the Grim. The deck features solid interactive answers and backup recursion pieces like Zul Ashur, Lich Lord and Liliana, Death's Majesty, but relies on multi-turn combat setups that are vulnerable to sweepers and graveyard hate.
