Commander: Orah, Skyclave Hierophant

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This is an Orzhov Cleric aristocrats deck built around Orah, Skyclave Hierophant. The primary plan is to sacrifice Clerics, use Orah's death trigger to return smaller Clerics, and convert every death into life loss with Zulaport Cutthroat, Cruel Celebrant, Bastion of Remembrance, and Syr Konrad, the Grim. Secondary paths lean on reanimation (Sun Titan, Bonecaller Cleric, Priest of Fell Rites) and a small lifegain-drain package with Cliffhaven Vampire and Marauding Blight-Priest. The commander is the engine; without Orah, the deck grinds. There is no hidden commander. It wins through repeated pings and token pressure rather than one combo.
