Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"So, "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Massacre Girl, Known Killer"}},{"insert":" . As of this writing, she's pre-release, but I have experience with a very similar commander, "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Aegar, the Freezing Flame"}},{"insert":". Both have the amazing ability to say \"Whenever you kill something, draw\", which allows a deck to power forward while keeping its enemies from doing the same. In specific, this deck runs 45 cards that are capable of contributing to Massacre Girl draws while she's out, which is more than Aegar could manage in a cogent deck. This comes at the expense of some tech, but when everything is removal you can find room for trinkets.\n\nThe main downside to Massacre Girl's wanton killing is that there are a lot of board wipes, and most of them will hit your own stuff as well. "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Mutilate"}},{"insert":" is great and all, but while it ensures that your enemies can't have creatures and kill you, how do you intend to have creatures and kill them?\n\nWell, there are a few ways. One is "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Necroskitter"}},{"insert":", who can steal the entire field provided you tag it with a global counter placement like "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Soul Snuffers"}},{"insert":" before deploying the death, or that the death be counter-related like "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Black Sun's Zenith"}},{"insert":". Another is "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Dark Depths"}},{"insert":". No tricks here, the plan with it is to pay 30 mana like you're supposed to in order to recieve Marit Lage: you will be able to guy the time what with all the killing. If a proper combo is more your speed, though, "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Blowfly Infestation"}},{"insert":" plus "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Nest of Scarabs"}},{"insert":" can give infinite entrances and deaths, which is lethal with "},{"insert":{"card-link":"The Meathook Massacre"}},{"insert":" or "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Bastion of Remembrance"}},{"insert":". Nest is pretty good on its own making countless bugs when a big BSZ goes out, but infinite is better.\n"}]}
