Magar Spell Reanimator by BlackMageEW

Format: Commander

Commander: Magar of the Magic Strings

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Magar of the Magic Strings pilots a graveyard-first Rakdos deck that turns instants and sorceries into free, repeatable combat tricks. The primary plan is to mill and discard key spells, cast Magar, then create a hasty 3/3 token whose attack re-casts an instant for free; Savage Beating turns a single hit into infinite extra combats and lethal. The Infamous Cruelclaw and mass-reanimation spells provide a secondary midrange plan. The deck runs heavy draw/discard, targeted grave tutors, and flexible Rakdos removal, but it is vulnerable to graveyard hate and needs its commander or backup engine alive to convert cards into a win.
