Syr Vondam by DungeonSnack

Format: Commander

Commander: Syr Vondam, Sunstar Exemplar

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a token/leaves-the-battlefield Orzhov deck built around Syr Vondam's growth and removal trigger. The primary plan is to generate bodies from Ocelot Pride, Ainok Strike Leader, Adeline, and similar engines while repeated blink effects put +1/+1 counters and life onto Syr. Abdel Adrian acts as a hidden combo commander: with Eldrazi Displacer and Ashnod's Altar plus any spare permanent, he creates infinite Soldier tokens and infinite mana, turning Syr into an arbitrarily large, unblockable kill. Secondary paths are go-wide token attacks through Exalted Sunborn/Kambal and slow grind from Syr's death/exile removal. The deck is linear but has strong draw and recursion to assemble its primary finish.
