Creepy Goth Girl by FrostbiteMTG

Format: Commander

Commander: Gisa, the Hellraiser

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

A mono-black Zombie/Skeleton tribal attrition deck built around Gisa, the Hellraiser's crime trigger: every targeted spell or ability - removal, hand disruption, graveyard exile - creates two tapped 2/2 Zombie Rogue tokens. The deck floods the board with cheap token engines and lords, then weaponizes its interaction (Thoughtseize, Go for the Throat, Withered Wretch) to grow a horde with menace and deathtouch. Drain permanents like Ayara, First of Locthwain, Mirkwood Bats, Shepherd of Rot, and Gray Merchant of Asphodel convert the swarm into life loss, while graveyard recursion from Gravespawn Sovereign, Emperor of Bones, Forsaken Miner, and Gravecrawler provides grind inevitability. There is no compact combo; the deck wins through attrition, overwhelming combat, and cumulative drain, punishing pods that cannot keep up with its removal density.
