Marrow-Gnawer
Marrow-Gnawer Commander Deck
Marrow-Gnawer sits at the center of an exponential token generation engine, sacrificing one Rat to create a number of new Rat tokens equal to your entire board, then doing it again to multiply the swarm further each turn. The deck leverages life-loss payoffs and drain effects to punish opponents as the Rat army grows, with cards like Gray Merchant of Asphodel and Gruesome Fate converting a massive board into lethal damage. Global black-creature buffs and fear from the commander ensure the horde is large enough and evasive enough to close out games through combat while disruption and removal keep the path clear.
