Welcome to Rubinia’s Grand Hostage Hotel, where your creatures check in… but they never check out! This Bant Control Commander deck thrives on snatching your opponents' best creatures, locking down their board, and making every decision they take a nightmare.

• Rubinia Soulsinger “politely borrows” the strongest creatures.
• Agent of Treachery & Treachery take even more (because one stolen threat isn’t enough).
• Ghostly Prison & Propaganda turn attacking into a costly affair.
• Mindslaver & Confiscate ensure your opponent plays the game for you.
• Clone Legion & Altered Ego copy the best threats—because originality is overrated.

Oh, and if your opponents manage to reclaim their board? Nevinyrral’s Disk and Oblivion Stone wipe the slate clean, letting you start fresh.

If you love control, table politics, and making opponents second-guess every move, this deck is for you!
