[V7] Thalia and the Gitrog Monster

Format: Commander

Commander: Thalia and The Gitrog Monster

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Abzan landfall/combo deck built around Thalia and The Gitrog Monster as a single-faced commander. Thalia accelerates land drops and taxes opponents' creatures and nonbasic lands, fueling landfall tokens and sacrifice engines. The primary win is an infinite drain loop: Sephiroth, Warren Soultrader, Forsaken Miner, and Blood Artist, while the secondary path uses Elspeth, Nissa, and Springheart Nantuko to generate exponential landfall tokens and close with Craterhoof or Moonshaker. Rectors, Beseech, and Natural Order find the pieces. Without the combo, Field of the Dead, Felidar Retreat, and Braids provide steady board presence. No hidden commander; Sephiroth is the key noncommander engine.
