Which King? (strong 2) by dngs

Format: Commander

Commander: Lord of the Nazgûl

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Lord of the Nazgul is the sole engine: the deck casts him early, then runs a chain of cheap instants and sorceries to make Wraiths. Roaming Throne and copy effects-Spark Double, Irenicus's Vile Duplication, Quantum Misalignment-multiply the commander's trigger so a single turn can cross the nine-Wraith threshold and turn the board into 9/9 menace attackers. Crashing Drawbridge provides the haste needed to convert the token swarm into a table kill. Mirkwood Bats and Altar of Dementia are secondary payoff paths, and Nanogene Conversion can turn every creature into an additional Lord for the final chain. There is no hidden commander; the deck is built around Lord of the Nazgul and functions as a draw-go spellslinger deck until the big token turn.
