Behold, a deck I can't stop coming back to! <3

"Out on the road there are fireflies circling

Deep in the woods, where the lost souls hide

Over the hill there are men returning

Trying to find some peace of mind

Sleep my child..."

Mono-black deck built around our commander Shirei, using her recursive ability to try and get as much value out of all the 1/1s in the deck. This deck makes some of the lesser used, and honestly average, creatures throughout MTG's history absolute powerhouses.

Strategy here is very simple:

  • Protect Shirei
  • Play 1/1s, like Skyscanner
  • Have 1+ sacrifice outlets on field
  • Gain value from either the ETB or death of the 1/1s, via their own effects or other cards effects, such as Blood Artist
  • Repeat every, single turn

And it's that simple. The more effects you have, the better this deck runs. Might have noticed a significant list change, that's because I had this deck taken apart for over a year, and have thrown it back together ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

This a bit of a pet deck of mine, so it'll constantly be worked on/updated whenever I feel it needs it. Fun fact:the Japanese version of this card is '死零', which roughly translates to 'Death Zero', which is quite fitting really ԅ(≖‿≖ԅ)

Any suggestions/feedback is apprieciated!
