The Lizard League (Serpent Society) by Gebel

Format: Commander

Commander: The Serpent Society

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

The Serpent Society commands a Golgari deathtouch tribal deck designed to establish lethal combat pressure while punishing opponents for interacting. The commander turns every traded deathtouch creature into a symmetrical edict, clearing opposing boards while protecting itself with a brutal five-poison ward penalty. The primary path to victory involves attacking with low-cost deathtouch creatures accelerated by Fynn, the Fangbearer to stack lethal poison counters rapidly. Alternatively, the deck overwhelms the table using Triumph of the Hordes, life-halving hits from Unstoppable Slasher or Aphelia, Viper Whisperer, or steady aristocrat burn from Hooded Blightfang and Poison-Tip Archer while recurring fallen threats.
