Mono black reanimator by Bart2244

Format: Commander

Commander: Junji, the Midnight Sky

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a mono-black graveyard-reanimator deck with a sacrifice/drain shell, helmed by Junji, the Midnight Sky. The primary plan is to fill the graveyard through Entomb, Buried Alive, Stitcher's Supplier, Cemetery Tampering, and Incarnation Technique, then cheat out high-impact black creatures with Reanimate, Animate Dead, Living Death, Doomed Necromancer, and Phyrexian Delver. Payoffs are evasive reanimation targets like Archon of Cruelty, Massacre Wurm, Sheoldred, Whispering One, Sepulchral Primordial, and Gray Merchant of Asphodel. A sacrifice engine built on Viscera Seer, Ashnod's Altar, and Warren Soultrader feeds Dark Prophecy, Morbid Opportunist, Ayara, First of Locthwain, and Attrition. Junji himself is a recursive dragon: when he dies he either forces each opponent to discard two cards and lose 2 life, or reanimates a non-Dragon from any graveyard. There is no fast infinite combo; the deck wins by grind, drain, and flying/menace combat.
