Gonti, Night Minister
Commander: Gonti, Night Minister · Colors: B · Bracket: B3-Low · Power: 2.5 · 100 cards
This mono-black deck utilizes Gonti, Night Minister to generate value by casting spells from opponents' libraries while maintaining a low-to-the-ground creature base. It relies on efficient removal, discard effects, and drain-based win conditions like Exsanguinate and The Meathook Massacre to pressure the table. The strategy focuses on incremental advantage and attrition, leveraging high-impact black staples to control the board state until a finisher can be deployed.
