Rats by Darkshadow71297

Format: Commander

Commander: Marrow-Gnawer

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Rat swarm deck built around Marrow-Gnawer's exponential token generation. The commander is the main engine: each use of his ability actually doubles the rat count, while his fear ability makes the swarm evasive. The deck's secondary path is poison, with Karumonix acting as a hidden commander by giving all Rats toxic 1 and tutoring for more Rats; Ichor Rats provides a free poison counter to every opponent. A third path converts the huge board directly into life loss with Gruesome Fate and Foul-Tongue Shriek. The plan is slow but self-sustaining, using death triggers and graveyard recursion to rebuild after wipes, while discard spells and removal keep early threats in check.
