Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"So this deck is all about robbing the grave, but out my own. I’ll send my opponents creatures and spells into the graveyard via, removal, discard, mill, and the standard flow of the game. Then, play those creatures myself. The deck is rife with interesting interactions and fun play patterns. Most win cons are intentionally left out of the deck as well as effective mill. This is done intentionally to ensure that winning the game will be done on the backs of the opponent’s creatures and spells. The deck should be able to stay in games with low apparent threat level and defensive early play. However, it’s capable of grinding value and strong late game plays, assuming the opponents bring something fun to the table!! Inspired by one of my favorite commanders of all time sakashima the imposter (my layer 1 / layer 2) deck. It was immensely fun to win by copying and controlling the tools my opponents provide. This is a play on that where you use their graveyard against them. The deck also includes a number of graveyard hate cards to combat helping other graveyard decks. These type of fun, offbeat interactions is how I like to build all my decks. I truly hope whoever reads this enjoys the build. If anyone else ends up playing with the list, I’d love to hear how you enjoyed it!\n"}]}
