Deck overview

This deck is a mono-black attrition and theft control strategy piloted by Gisa, Glorious Resurrector. The core game plan focuses on systematically clearing opposing creature boards using an abundant suite of symmetrical sacrifice effects and targeted removal spells. Whenever an opposing creature would die, Gisa exiles it instead, completely cutting off opposing death triggers and graveyard recursion. On each of your upkeeps, Gisa resurrects all exiled creatures under your control with decayed, turning the opponents' own threats into a disposable attacking force. The deck features extreme functional redundancy in its removal package, ensuring consistent engine execution without relying on generic tutors. While the deck boasts oppressive control over creature-heavy boards, it has notable vulnerabilities to noncreature combo strategies, artifact ramp, and instant-speed removal targeting Gisa before upkeep. Alternative win conditions such as Massacre Wurm, Archfiend of Depravity, Skithiryx, the Blight Dragon, and Torment of Hailfire ensure the deck can close games even without commander theft.
