Commander: Thalia and The Gitrog Monster

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is an Abzan lands-matter deck built around Thalia and The Gitrog Monster, combining the taxing speed of a hate-bear package with the grinding inevitability of a landfall engine. The commander offers an extra land drop, an attack-triggered draw, and a Thalia, Heretic Cathar-style tax on opposing creatures and nonbasic lands. The 99 is built to maximize land drops through Oracle of Mul Daya, Azusa, Lost but Seeking, Dryad of the Ilysian Grove, and land-recursion loops with Crucible of Worlds and Ramunap Excavator. Those lands turn into tokens via Titania, Protector of Argoth, Rampaging Baloths, and Felidar Retreat, then close the game through Craterhoof Behemoth or Finale of Devastation. The deck also runs a disruptive shell of Archon of Emeria, Thalia, Guardian of Thraben, and Collector Ouphe to slow opponents while the land engine takes over.
