Jerren, Corrupted Bishop // Ormendahl, the Corrupter

Jerren is a transforming powerhouse that gives you two distinct game plans in one card. As a Cleric, Jerren offers evasion and lifegain, letting you stabilize while pinging opponents. But the real appeal is flipping into Ormendahl, a trampling flyer that doubles your life total and turns you into a serious threat. Your deck wants to enable consistent transforms—whether through damage dealt to opponents, sacrifice outlets, or simply accumulating life. Once you flip, Ormendahl becomes a commander-damage clock while your elevated life total acts as a resource.

Build around cards that interact with your life total and sacrifice themes. You want repeatable ways to trigger transforms: Blood Artist effects, token generators, and life-gain payoffs all push you closer to flipping while generating value. Dark Ritual and other cheap Black ramp let you jam threats early. The deck plays out like a midrange deck that pivots into a finisher—stabilize and stall early, then close out with a massive flyer and life advantage. Don't sleep on simple swarm strategies either: tokens and small creatures turn into flying trampling pressure once transformed.
