Commander: Thalia and The Gitrog Monster

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Thalia and The Gitrog Monster commands an Abzan lands-matter midrange deck that blends asymmetric stax with overwhelming landfall engines. The commander slows down opponents by forcing their creatures and nonbasic lands to enter tapped, while providing extra land drops and card draw. The primary path to victory involves ramping into wide token swarms with Scute Swarm, Felidar Retreat, Titania, Protector of Argoth, or Avenger of Zendikar, then finishing with Craterhoof Behemoth or large Scapeshift landfalls. Secondary paths include Dark Depths combined with Thespian's Stage for a fast Marit Lage, or repeated Strip Mine land denial locks via graveyard recursion engines.
