Shelob by kcampbell268

Format: Commander

Commander: Shelob, Child of Ungoliant

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Golgari deck centers on Shelob, Child of Ungoliant, combining Spider tribal synergy with a deadly deathtouch fight-and-steal control plan. In the early game, you establish mana ramp and deploy low-cost Spiders. Once Shelob hits the board, every Spider gains deathtouch and ward, turning fight and bite spells like Bite Down and Setessan Tactics into lethal removal that steals opposing creatures as Food tokens. You win through accumulated combat damage buffed by tribal anthems, massive life-drain bursts via Ishkanah, Grafwidow and Rotwidow Pack, or the infinite combo of Exquisite Blood paired with Sanguine Bond or Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose.
