Suaron by Demogogonlol

Format: Commander

Commander: Sauron, the Dark Lord

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This is a Grixis midrange-combo build helmed by Sauron, the Dark Lord. The deck converts opponents' spells into amass triggers, attacks with a growing Orc Army to tempt the Ring, and turns each temptation into Sauron's discard-hand-and-draw-four effect. From that card advantage it pivots into compact wins: Demonic Consultation + Thassa's Oracle, or the Sanguine Bond + Exquisite Blood life loop. A parallel Wraith plan uses nine Nazgul, Lord of the Nazgul, and Rising of the Day to close through combat, with Living Death, Marchesa, the Black Rose, and Ringwraiths supplying strong recursion. It is a commander-centric value deck whose 99 contains real combo teeth.
