Nazgul by gimbo44

Format: Commander

Commander: Lord of the Nazgûl

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a UB spells-matter Wraith deck. Lord of the Nazgul is the engine and finisher: every instant/sorcery makes a 3/3 menace Wraith, and once nine Wraiths exist, a cheap spell before combat turns the whole army into 9/9s. The secondary plan is to use the nine Nazgul as extra Wraiths and copy Lord with Spark Double, Quantum Misalignment, Quasiduplicate, or Wizard's Staff to double the token stream. Grima, Saruman's Footman and Bilbo supply value and graveyard casting. There is no hidden commander; the Nazgul set is best treated as a support package. The deck wins by attacking with a huge, hard-to-block Wraith swarm over two combat steps.
