Commander: Sauron, the Dark Lord

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Sauron, the Dark Lord anchors a Grixis midrange engine that turns enemy spells into an Orc Army and uses Ring-tempt triggers to convert a discarded hand into four cards. The primary plan is to survive to the mid-game with Sauron plus Nazgul/Ring cards, then either grind through reanimated threats or finish with a Devastating Onslaught copied onto Terror of the Peaks for a burst of 150+ damage. Secondary paths are a Nazgul Wraith swarm and a treasure-fueled dragon package. There is no double-faced commander and no true hidden commander; the nine Nazgul operate as a sub-theme. The deck has no infinite-mana outlet, so its wins are deliberately timed midrange bursts.
