Format: Commander

Commander: Tasha, the Witch Queen

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Tasha, the Witch Queen is a UB value-control commander whose engine uses +1 to draw while exiling opposing instants/sorceries, then -3 to cast those page-counter spells for free; every spell cast that the controller doesn't own makes a 3/3 Demon. The secondary plan is a zombie/drain package (Death Baron, Diregraf Captain, Epicure of Blood, Sheoldred) plus graveyard recursion and reanimation to outlast opponents. There is no infinite combo; wins come from chaining Tasha's stolen spells, growing Xande, Dark Mage, and beating down with buffed zombies and 3/3 Demons. It is a midrange value deck with no hidden commander, although Tasha itself occasionally acts as the strategic center by converting graveyard cards into free spells.
