Format: Commander

Commander: The Reaper, King No More

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

The deck is a -1/-1 counter attrition build that aims to control the battlefield with wither, proliferate, and sweeping counter effects, then finish with a drain loop. The Reaper, King No More is the value/recursion commander: it weakens two creatures on entry and steals one dying opponent creature per turn, but it is not the engine. Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons, Nest of Scarabs, and Flourishing Defenses turn counters into tokens, while Yawgmoth, Thran Physician, Warren Soultrader, and Gravecrawler convert those tokens into infinite death triggers. Massacre Girl and Maha, Its Feathers Night provide alternate pressure by combining wither with base-toughness reduction. The deck is designed to grind advantage and end via Blood Artist/Zulaport Cutthroat life loss.
