Squall by Subzeero88

Format: Commander

Commander: Squall, SeeD Mercenary

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This Orzhov deck leverages Squall, SeeD Mercenary as a volatile combat and recursion engine. Squall grants double strike to any creature attacking alone and reanimates a permanent with mana value 3 or less whenever he deals combat damage to a player. The primary game plan equips Squall with Swords or evasion tools, triggers multiple reanimations per turn, and builds an overwhelming board of disruptive creatures and aristocrat threats. The deck closes games through rapid Voltron elimination, amplified life drain via Bloodletter of Aclazotz, or transforming Westvale Abbey into Ormendahl, Profane Prince after filling the board.
