"one small cut here, one small cut there, they never notice the poison drip from the blade... until that is, they're kneeling before me... wondering where the time went"

Hapatra is my first and my favorite Commander. This deck is all about creating death touch snake tokens, killing everything on my opponent's sides of the board, and slowing my opponents down so that I can inevitably combo off for the win. The main goal is to play stax into a combo finish.

Although the deck is my own, I would like to call out the master of Hapatra herself Daedalus19876. I have followed her work on this deck for a very long time. Imitation is the best form of flattery.

I love this deck and know every card inside and out, front to back, upside down and sideways.
