"Marrow-Gnawer's Rat Horde" is a relentless and synergistic Commander deck that revolves around the iconic creature type: rats. Led by Marrow-Gnawer, the deck boasts a vast army of Relentless Rats, leveraging their unique ability to have as many copies in the deck as you desire. This endless horde of rats floods the battlefield and overwhelms opponents through sheer numbers.

The deck focuses on three main pillars:

Rat Swarm Synergy: With the ability to run as many Relentless Rats as you want, the deck ensures a consistent and imposing presence of rat creatures on the battlefield. Cards like Thrumming Stone further amplify this effect, allowing you to chain multiple rat creatures into play simultaneously.

Rat Utility and Graveyard Interaction: The deck is not solely reliant on swarming the battlefield. It includes utility rats like Crypt Rats, Ogre Slumlord, and Nezumi Graverobber  , which provide various abilities such as board control, token generation, and graveyard manipulation.

Powerful Rat-Supporting Artifacts and Enchantments: The deck incorporates powerful artifacts and enchantments like Coat of Arms, Thornbite Staff, and Attrition to enhance the strength of your rat army further. This synergy ensures that your rats are not only numerous but also incredibly potent.

Overall, "Marrow-Gnawer's Rat Horde" capitalizes on the strength in numbers theme of the relentless rats while employing a combination of powerful creatures and supporting cards to dominate the battlefield and outvalue opponents in a swarm-based strategy.
