Rat Stew by JakesMyth
Format: Commander
Commander: Tom, Bert, and William
Bracket: 3
Deck overview
Tom, Bert, and William leads a relentless Golgari swarm built around twenty-two copies of Rat Colony. The commander turns the exponential power growth of Rat Colony into massive card draw, digging deep into the library for explosive payoffs. Key enablers like Secret Salvage fill the hand with every remaining Rat Colony, which convert into fast mana through Skirge Familiar, Cadaverous Bloom, or Ashnod's Altar. The deck finishes games by either overwhelming opponents with fear-granting alpha strikes via Marrow-Gnawer, trampling with Craterhoof Behemoth, or draining the entire table simultaneously using Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord and Ayara, First of Locthwain.
