How this commander wants to play

Gorbag of Minas Morgul turns your Goblins and Orcs into value engines. Each time one deals combat damage, you can sacrifice it for card draw or a Treasure token, turning aggression into resources. This lets you pivot between racing opponents, fixing mana for bigger plays, or fueling explosive turns. The deck plays like a mid-power aggro-midrange deck that doesn't care if its threats die — you're getting paid either way.

Build around cheap Goblin and Orc lords that pump your team, then fill the deck with efficient creatures that naturally want to attack. Cards like Krenko, Tin Street Kingpin or Judith, the Scourge Diva multiply your sacrifice outlets and value triggers. You're never hellbent because Gorbag converts combat into raw resources, letting you reload threats or combo into bigger payoffs. Win by overwhelming the board early, then shift into card advantage and tempo swings.

Budget Build

Same gameplan, less money

Use budget Goblin lords like Shared Animosity or Goblin Warchief instead of pricey overlords; swap dual lands for basic Swamps and sacrifice outlets like Viscera Seer for pricier aristocrat cards.
