Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"I was originally deck building Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver prioritizing high power for bracket 4 almost cEDH like gameplay. But I have reduced the power level and staples to increase zombies. \n\nBracket 4 is currently not as well defined as Brackets 1-3. My original idea was to take a consistent strategy (zombies) and make it as competitive as possible without using the traditional cEDH wincons, such as Thoracle or Demonic consultation, tainted pact, etc. but using a high power non-restriction (other than the banned list) shell. \n\nThis is currently my most played and beloved deck, I love zombies. \nThis deck only plays against other similar high power decks from my friends playgroup, it might not work that well in and LGS due to the salt inducing cards or the lack of answers to stronger strategies.\n\nThe main weakness of the deck is stax. \n\nDeck sideboard has the power-up/power-down cards, this are just cards that are staples in my playgroup and have proven to be powerful, although not efficient enough to include them on the winning strategy (Zombie). \nDeck maybeboard has all the cards that I could potentially include.\nCards currently inside the deck are marked with GREEN, cards I do not own are marked with RED, cards with Orange and Purple are Power-Up and Power-DOWN respectively. \n\nCheck the deck combos, just copy-paste the current deck list:\nhttps://commanderspellbook.com/find-my-combos/\n"}]}
