Main Deck cards Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver
Strategy
The "Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver" Commander deck is a zombie tribal deck, focused on creating a horde of undead creatures to overwhelm your opponents. The strategy of the deck revolves around using cards like Cemetery Reaper, Death Baron, and Lord of the Accursed to pump up your zombies and make them more threatening. Diregraf Captain and Diregraf Colossus provide additional benefits when you cast zombie creatures, rewarding you for playing more undead minions. One of the key combos in the deck is Rooftop Storm along with Gravecrawler, allowing you to cast Gravecrawler from your graveyard for free as many times as you can pay its mana cost. This can lead to explosive turns where you flood the board with zombies without using much mana. Cards like Zombie Apocalypse and Liliana's Mastery can also swing the game heavily in your favor by bringing back all your fallen zombies and buffing the ones you already have. Good points of the deck include its ability to create a large board presence quickly, overwhelming opponents with an army of zombies. The recursion provided by cards like Gravecrawler and the graveyard-focused cards in the deck ensure that you can keep the pressure on even if your creatures are destroyed. However, the deck can be vulnerable to board wipes that exile your creatures, as it heavily relies on having zombies on the battlefield to function effectively. Additionally, it may struggle against decks with heavy graveyard hate, as these cards can disrupt your ability to recur creatures and generate value from your graveyard. Overall, the "Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver" Commander deck is a fun and flavorful tribal deck that can be very powerful when it gets going. It rewards strategic play and can lead to some explosive and satisfying wins with a horde of undead at your command.
