New Deck

Summary

A highsynergy monoblack aristocrats/combo deck that plays above average Bracket 3 power. Its tutor density, compact loops, and strong sacrifice engines make it dangerous, but the lean 33land manabase, lack of stack interaction, and dependence on creature/graveyard engines leave clear attack points.

Commander

Sephiroth, Fabled SOLDIER // Sephiroth, One-Winged Angel
