The Mycotyrant
The Mycotyrant Commander Deck
This is a self-mill reanimator deck. You fill your graveyard with mill and surveil effects, dredge and sacrifice outlets, then return the biggest creatures or card advantage cheaply. The Mycotyrant adds a stream of Fungus tokens, since every permanent card that hits your graveyard in a turn counts as a descent and makes a 1/1 at your end step. It grows as your Fungi and Saprolings pile up. How it wins: You cheat in large threats like Bringer of the Last Gift or Hogaak, and chip away with drain effects like Syr Konrad and Cauldron of Essence while a swarm of tokens and Splinterfright or The Mycotyrant attack, with the Hogaak, Infested Thrinax and Altar of Dementia loop available as a combo finish. Key roles: - Self-mill enablers: Stitcher's Supplier, Undead Butler, Nyx Weaver and Perpetual Timepiece fill the graveyard fast. That powers descent, the graveyard-count creatures, and the reanimation targets. - Reanimation and recursion: Dread Return, Squirming Emergence, Seedship Broodtender and Eternal Witness bring back creatures and permanents, and Bringer of the Last Gift is the top-end payoff that wipes the board and revives everything. - Sacrifice outlets and fodder: Ashnod's Altar, Skullclamp and Umbral Collar Zealot turn creatures and tokens into graveyard cards, mana and draws. Skullclamp in particular converts the 1/1 tokens into cards. - Death and graveyard payoffs: Syr Konrad, Cauldron of Essence, Mirkwood Bats and Gardenize punish every creature dying, milling or being sacrificed, so each enabler also drains opponents or ramps you. - Token and Fungus swarm: Infested Thrinax, Grist and the commander's own descent tokens make bodies that feed sacrifice and grow The Mycotyrant. Twilight Diviner copies a reanimated creature once per turn, so it is a bonus, not a repeatable engine.
