Maybeboard


Elenda, the Dusk Rose is wielding the mighty Worldslayer to bring the end of the world and unleash her hoard of vampires to rule the fallout. She is ready, and willing, to sacrifice friend or foe to accomplish her goal.

Featured on Commander Cookout Podcast episode 148!

Sacrificial Lambs

Altar of Dementia, Ashnod's Altar, Spawning Pit, and Yahenni, Undying Partisan offer instant speed sacrifice outlets with upside. Nothing is more satisfying than sacrificing everything in the face of a board wipe or Worldslayer trigger. Altar of Dementia can result in massive mills for yourself to get key reanimation targets into your library, or mill out an opponent with a gigantic Elenda and the following tokens.

Grave Pact and Dictate of Erebos are must removes for your opponents. These are the engines your death machine runs on. Locking out board states with repeated sacrifice outlets set up huge Elenda swings or buy you the time to draw/tutor into a combo.

Shriekmaw, Fleshbag Marauder, Sidisi, Undead Visier,and Merciless Executioner keep things efficient by killing themselves for us!

Weapons of the Apocalypse

We run a small equipment package and a handful of tutors to make sure Elenda has the proper tools to bring certain, or instant, death.

Blade of the Bloodchief is a house. This card triples Elenda's trigger and is an instant threat.

Elenda can Howl from Beyond to instant kill an opponent or beef up before removal, flooding the board. If you are feeling particularly nasty, Tainted Strike will also finish the job.

Enlightened Tutor, Taj-Nar Swordsmith, and Stone Hewer Giant let us tutor the right tool for the job. This can be a timely Worldslayer or Nim's Deathmantle to set up a combo turn. E-Tutor can also fetch a sacrifice outlet if the need arises.

Defying Death

Elenda never goes to the Command Zone, so she needs the tools to bring death from the Graveyard.

When assigned the mission to destroy the world, Elenda was bestowed the Gift of Immortality. She must be exiled or killed twice to be removed from the board. She call call upon her Supernatural Stamina in a dire moment to unleash the hoard and keep fighting another day.

When Chainer, Dementia Master has access to bucketloads of mana he will either close out a game himself or act as harbinger and set up a two turn win.

Combo Death

Elenda has an arsenal of nuclear combos on tap to slay the world if she cannot do it herself.

Ashnod's Altar + Nim's Deathmantle set up infinite colorless mana in this deck Elenda herself or Grave Titan. This will generate an infinite amount of vampires or an infinitely large Elenda. If you can connect an attack you will gain an infinite amount of life. You could also dump that mana into a Torment of Hailfire if you are so inclined. Marionette Master drains the table and wins instantly.

Chainer, Dementia Master + K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth + Kokusho is also an instant win with a sac outlet on board netting you more life than you are losing with Chainer!

I welcome any feedback or suggestions!

Happy Worldslaying!

Updates Add

I have not updated this deck since WAR due to sheer laziness.

I have big plans for my dark lady with the update to the death triggers, but I think I will still keep the core element of graveyard abuse alive and well!

Keep on Worldslaying!
