Loopy Orzhov by user8349878

Format: Commander

Commander: Bartolomé del Presidio

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This is an Orzhov aristocrats/reanimator combo deck. Bartolome del Presidio is both the sacrifice engine and the payoff: his free activation feeds every loop with +1/+1 counters and death triggers. The deck uses self-mill to put a recursive Aura such as Kaya's Ghostform into the graveyard, then a reattacher such as Brotherhood Outcast or Danitha, Benalia's Hope brings it back attached to itself. Sacrificing that creature to Bartolome returns it, and the loop repeats indefinitely. Drain effects convert the loop into a table kill; an arbitrarily large Bartolome with Rogue's Passage is the fallback. There is no hidden commander; the deck leans on Bartolome as the primary outlet.
