Abzan Combos - Ramp + Draw by user5137572

Format: Commander

Commander: Myrkul, Lord of Bones

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Abzan aristocrats/combo deck helmed by Myrkul, Lord of Bones leverages death triggers and -1/-1 counter manipulation to assemble infinite loops. The primary game plan is to create a sacrifice outlet (Viscera Seer, Cartel Aristocrat) alongside a persist creature (Kitchen Finks, Safehold Elite) and Vizier of Remedies to prevent the -1/-1 counter from persisting, generating infinite death triggers. These trigger drain effects like Elas il-Kor, Sadistic Pilgrim and Corpse Knight to kill all opponents. A secondary loop uses Scurry Oak + Rosie Cotton of South Lane to create infinite squirrel tokens and +1/+1 counters, then sacrifice them for drain. Myrkul provides a resilient backup: dead creatures become enchantment tokens that dodge creature wipes, though the deck's combos function independently of the commander. The deck is dense with token makers, +1/+1 counter synergies, and repeatable card draw from deaths (Moldervine Reclamation, Morbid Opportunist, Skullclamp).
