Gliss, the Traitor a decklist developed by: Bennie Smith* for Tolarian Community College. Watch me go over how to pilot this deck in a video guide here: A Guide To Glissa, the Traitor EDH

"If it were fit to survive, it wouldn't have been so easily put down." —Glissa - Glissa's Scorn

Glissa, the Traitor; once she was marked a protector of the home of Mirran but has since become tainted by the oil of the Phyrexian and made champion to Vorinclex.

In this deck take advantage of the lethal strength of recursive artifacts due to Glissa's ability with the aid a swarm of creatures the deal with your opponent's pesky creatures. By artifacts like Executioner's Capsule, Ratchet Bomb, or Larry Nivan's disk you can take advantage of Glissa returning those same trinkets and using them over and over. Even if you are not reusing artifacts over and over, you may find your opponents seeking to destroy your powerful artifacts but fear not, with Glissa in play you will be your greatest general. For further information, please watch the video.
