Zemus' Strongest Soldiers by Espers2Magicite

Format: Commander

Commander: Golbez, Crystal Collector

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This Dimir artifact deck leverages Golbez, Crystal Collector to churn through cards and drain the table. Golbez surveils whenever an artifact enters, loading the graveyard with high-power creatures like Troll of Khazad-dum and Twisted Abomination. Once you assemble four artifacts, Golbez returns those creatures to your hand for repeated utility or discard fodder. Reaching eight artifacts turns your end step into a heavy drain engine that damages all opponents based on the returned creature's power. Secondary lines close the game through massive artifact-scaled attackers like Kappa Cannoneer, Master of Etherium, or direct burn from Syr Konrad, the Grim and Haunt the Network.
