Deck overview

This deck is a high-speed Dimir Turbo Reanimator combo list designed for competitive multiplayer Commander. Commanded by Locke Cole, which provides early lifelink, deathtouch defense, and incidental looting, the deck leverages format-ceiling acceleration and premier black and blue tutors to assemble explosive win lines as early as Turn 2 or 3. Its primary route utilizes Buried Alive or Entomb to place Necrotic Ooze, Asmodeus the Archfiend, and Skirge Familiar into the graveyard, reanimating the Ooze to draw the entire library without life loss and generate infinite mana into Aetherflux Reservoir or Exsanguinate. Backup plans include Hoarding Broodlord convoke chains with Saw in Half, raw Peer into the Abyss casts, Bolas's Citadel loops, and Hullbreaker Horror bounces. A world-class suite of free countermagic, bounce spells, and card-draw engines ensures the deck can protect its own winning turns while disrupting faster opponents.
