Main Deck cards Totentanz, Swarm Piper

Strategy

The "Totentanz, Swarm Piper" deck in Commander format focuses on a Rat tribal theme with a sub-theme of sacrificing creatures for value and dealing incremental damage to opponents. **Strategy:** - The main strategy of the deck is to flood the board with Rat Colony tokens, supported by cards like Lord Skitter, Sewer King, Karumonix, the Rat King, and Pack Rat. - Sacrifice outlets like Piper of the Swarm and Ratcatcher Trainee can be used to generate value from sacrificing rats, triggering effects like Impact Tremors, Gnawing Crescendo, and Raid Bombardment to chip away at opponents' life totals. - Tangled Colony, Ogre Slumlord, and Ogre Chitterlord provide additional ways to create token creatures to overwhelm the opponent. **Good Points:** - The deck can create a wide board presence quickly with its swarm strategy, putting pressure on opponents. - The sacrifice synergies allow for repeated value from sacrificing creatures, generating card advantage and triggering powerful effects. - The deck has access to strong mana acceleration with cards like Sol Ring and Arcane Signet, enabling you to cast your spells faster. **Bad Points:** - The deck may be vulnerable to board wipes and mass removal effects that can reset your board state. - Reliance on creature tokens may make the deck susceptible to decks with heavy creature removal or an abundance of board wipes. - Lack of removal or interaction spells can make it challenging to deal with specific threats or problematic permanents on the battlefield. Overall, the "Totentanz, Swarm Piper" deck offers an aggressive and synergistic approach to the Commander format, focusing on swarming the board with creatures and leveraging sacrifice synergies to drain opponents' life totals. With careful play and strategic decision-making, the deck can be a fun and powerful option in Commander games.
