Meren's Merciless Massacre EDH

Meren is a powerfull commander, she will kill anything that comes in her way and will plunder the graves of her fallen foes.

This is a reanimator type EDH deck that will focus on a graveyard/recursion theme. Anything from helpfull ETB and Dying effects. Meren will sacrifice her own army to raise it back, all the more powerfull.

Pros:

  • Very resilient due to repeated card usage
  • Has lots of interaction/combos
  • Can survive without Meren

Play this deck if you really like graveyard/recursion shenanighans and repeatable card usage/abuse. It's is a bit slow early game but once you rack up some experience counters she can get really out of control. That's also why there is alot of removal/boardcontrol to help you get to the late game without taking too many hits.

Cons:

  • Deck is midrange to endgame, no turn 5-6 wins
  • Graveyard hate will slow you down alot

This deck is not for you if you like infinite combos or win before turn 6. This deck will interact with your opponents, not shut them down completely or win out of nowhere with infinites.

Dual Lands:

Overgrown Tomb, Woodland Cemetery, Temple of Malady, Tainted Wood, Twilight Mire, Reflecting Pool and Command Tower

These Lands provide us a solid dual color manabase. They can be replaced with slower dual lands if these are not available to you.

Utility Lands:

Command Beacon: Gives Meren back her original casting cost by returning it to our hands.

Evolving Wilds, Terramorphic Expanse, Verdant Catacombs: Help thin out the deck, Verdant Catacombs can fetch Overgrown Tomb

High Market, Grim Backwoods, Phyrexian Tower: Provide extra utility and are sac outlets.

Volrath's Stronghold: One of the best lands in the deck due to its repeatable recursion.
