Heart Like A Grave (duplicated from zfinksteinberg) by Finkstein

Format: Commander

Commander: Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Wilhelt heads a Dimir Zombie aristocrats deck that grinds value through death triggers and token generation. Wilhelt turns every non-decayed Zombie death into a 2/2 decayed token and draws cards at end step, fueling a wide board. The deck wins by draining opponents with Diregraf Captain, Plague Belcher, and Gray Merchant of Asphodel, or by looping Gravecrawler with sac outlets and Mikaeus, Necroduality, or Rooftop Storm. The Scarab God and Grave Titan provide alternate grind. It plays as a resilient, graveyard-based midrange deck that out-values opponents rather than racing with fast combo. Entomb and reanimate effects assemble key pieces while Skullclamp and Undead Augur keep cards flowing.
