The weaver king by xAgent141x

Format: Commander

Commander: The Weaver King

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This is a Dimir "mill, steal, and drain" deck built around The Weaver King. The primary plan is to grind opponents' libraries down with early landfall crabs, Court of Cunning, and Phenax, God of Deception, then turn combat triggers from the commander - or its backup engines Captain N'ghathrod and Phenax - into stolen creatures and extra mill. The actual kill is usually a Mindcrank combo: Duskmantle Guildmage and an active Bloodchief Ascension each create a loop that decks all three opponents in one shot. Zenos yae Galvus // Shinryu, Transcendent Rival offers a conditional alternate win once he transforms. The commander is a strong value engine, but the deck is not dependent on him for its combo finish; the 99 holds most of the real win lines.
