Format: Commander

Commander: Selenia, the Cursed Heart

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Selenia, the Cursed Heart leads an Orzhov life-drain deck built around doubling life gain and converting it into universal life loss. The primary plan is to land Selenia early, deploy payoffs like Vito, Starscape Cleric, and Enduring Tenacity, then trigger a massive life-gain event such as Revival // Revenge. The secondary package leans on Bloodletter of Aclazotz and half-life effects - Shredder, Virtus, Radioactive Man, Peer into the Abyss - so one hit or spell kills the whole table. Shredder is the hidden commander, capable of closing games alone when Bloodletter is present. Ramp from rocks, Smothering Tithe, and Cabal Coffers fuels the finishers, while reanimation and protection spells keep key pieces alive.
