Commander: Yahenni, Undying Partisan

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This mono-black aristocrats deck uses Yahenni, Undying Partisan as a resilient, aggressive sacrifice outlet and scaling commander threat. The primary game plan generates recurring creature tokens with enablers like Jadar, Ghoulcaller of Nephalia, Ophiomancer, and Blight Mound, feeding sacrifice engines to trigger life drain from Blood Artist, Zulaport Cutthroat, and Arnyn, Deathbloom Botanist. Concurrently, opposing creatures are cleared through forced sacrifice and removal, growing Yahenni into a lethal attacker or generating mass mana with rituals like Cabal Ritual, Bubbling Muck, and Culling the Weak to finish opponents with a lethal Stensian Sanguinist // Exsanguinate.
