Format: Commander

Commander: Sidar Jabari of Zhalfir

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Sidar Jabari of Zhalfir is a knight-reanimator deck that uses the commander's eminence-triggered looting to fill the graveyard, refill your hand, and deploy Knights from the battlefield. The primary win is the Demonic Consultation with Thassa's Oracle, assembled with tutors and counterspells. A secondary beatdown plan uses Nazgul, Haakon, and recursion through Sidar and reanimation spells to grind the table, with efficient removal and free interaction protecting the combo turn. The deck is a hybrid combo-control build that also works without the commander but is much faster when he discounts and locks card flow.
