Celes you dig up the grave by xamillus

Format: Commander

Commander: Celes, Rune Knight

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Celes, Rune Knight commands a Mardu reanimator and counters strategy focused on cycling high-impact creatures through the graveyard. Casting Celes discards large threats and draws fresh resources, while her triggered ability places +1/+1 counters on your team whenever a creature enters from the graveyard. This passive counter distribution naturally cancels out -1/-1 persist counters on Murderous Redcap. Combined with a sacrifice outlet like Ashnod's Altar, Redcap persists infinitely to deal lethal damage to all opponents. Alternatively, the deck generates overwhelming board states through looping threats like Flayer of the Hatebound, Sun Titan, and Angel of Glory's Rise.
