When the raven comes a' knockin' by TurkeyChief

Format: Commander

Commander: Moseo, Vein's New Dean

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Moseo, Vein's New Dean helms a mono-black life-drain and reanimator build. The primary plan is to convert life-gain triggers into opposing life loss through Vito, Sanguine Bond, Starscape Cleric, and South Wind Avatar, then close with a scaled Exsanguinate or Defiling Daemogoth's end-step drain. Secondary paths are aristocrat attrition with Blood Artist, Zulaport Cutthroat, and Bastion of Remembrance, plus reanimator beats using Whip of Erebos, Victimize, and Vat of Rebirth. Moseo supplies a Pest token and repeatable end-step recursion; the deck has no hidden commander. Winning is usually a large, non-infinite drain turn rather than an infinite loop.
