The Overlord of the Balemurk fits well in a control or reanimator deck that focuses on milling opponents while utilizing the graveyard for value, as its ability to return non-Avatar creatures or planeswalkers from the graveyard can provide significant card advantage. Decks that include cards like The Scarab God or Gisa and Geralf can synergize well with this card, as they also leverage graveyard interactions. While there are powerful alternatives like Sorin, Grim Nemesis for direct card advantage or Tasha's Hideous Laughter for milling, the Overlord's unique impending mechanic offers a different strategic angle. Overall, it can see play in specific builds, particularly those that can take advantage of its milling and recursion capabilities.
