Corrupting Influence by WallyGator

Format: Commander

Commander: Ixhel, Scion of Atraxa

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Ixhel is an Abzan poison-control deck that wins by spreading poison counters with toxic/infect creatures and accelerating them with proliferate. The commander is the value engine: once opponents reach three poison counters, her Corrupted trigger turns their libraries into a second hand with color fixing. Secondary paths are a token army from Vishgraz and Phyrexian Swarmlord, a massive Wurmquake, or a Phyrexian Rebirth wipe. No double-faced commander is present; Ixhel is the sole commanded face. Vishgraz is a strong lieutenant, not a hidden commander. The deck is not combo-oriented; it wins through incremental combat damage, global proliferate, and occasional theft via Ixhel.
