Mothman by Genji

Format: Commander

Commander: The Wise Mothman

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

The Wise Mothman deck is a +1/+1-counter and mill-value build that turns every player's graveyard into a threat. The commander's rad counters force all players to mill at each end step; each nonland card milled feeds counters on the Mothman, which then closes with flying commander damage. Secondary lines use proliferate and counter doublers to explode a single Mutant, a poison kill via Venerated Rotpriest and infect effects, and free spell-casting from Kotis, the Fangkeeper and The Master, Transcendent. There is no hidden commander; Kotis and The Master are resilient payoffs, not a second general.
