Winter by Orzhov667

Format: Commander

Commander: Winter, Cynical Opportunist

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Winter, Cynical Opportunist leads a Golgari self-mill reanimator that fills its own graveyard and turns it into a board advantage engine. Early millers load the yard, the commander's delirium ability repeatedly reanimates the best dead permanent after each combat, and one-shot reanimation spells add extra threats. The deck's plan is to overrun the table with huge flying demons and tramplers, then finish with an infect alpha strike from Triumph of the Hordes. The hidden commander is effectively the graveyard itself: every key line flows through it, and the deck is at its best when mana sinks, recursion, and sacrifice outlets align.
