This is my stab at a basic mono-black token generation/reanimation deck. Torgaar, Famine Incarnate's ability isn't all that amazing, but I do like that it sets the life total of target player to half of their starting total, meaning that he can be used to reset our own life total if it becomes threateningly low. In addition to this, since Torgaar, Famine Incarnate's CMC is less for each creature sacrificed toward him, the command tax becomes somewhat laughable, especially when the field is swarming with 1/1 tokens ripe for the reaping. The commander is a valuable tool to be used in conjunction with the rest of the deck, not necessarily a big, flashy showpiece that the rest of the deck is forced to adhere to. The deck is also chock-full of spot removal in order to take care of threats as they appear on the board.

This is a pretty casual deck that I don't expect to be pulling off anything crazy with. If it looks like I'm missing anything, or if it looks like I have something included that doesn't belong please say so!

Thanks!
