sorin reanimator/lifegain by arsoni

Format: Commander

Commander: Sorin of House Markov // Sorin, Ravenous Neonate

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Sorin of House Markov is built around the front face: a cheap extort/lifelink creature that transforms after any 3-life turn, turning every spell into a small drain. The deck layers Soul Warden effects, extort, and payoffs such as Vito, Enduring Tenacity, and Marauding Blight-Priest, so every life-gain event becomes damage. The back planeswalker is a bonus finisher and theft effect, not the core engine. Secondary paths are combat with Serra Ascendant and Inkshield tokens, plus mass life-total spells. There is no hidden commander; K'rrik, Liesa, and Karlov are support pieces.
