Lyzolda, the Blood Witch

Lyzolda, the Blood Witch is a sacrifice payoff commander that rewards you for throwing creatures into the grinder. She's essentially a repeatable damage source and card draw engine rolled into one—sacrifice a red creature for 2 damage to anything, or a black creature for a card. Your deck wants to fill the board with cheap creatures (especially ones that are both black and red, or come in pairs) that don't mind dying, then systematically sacrifice them for value.

The core gameplan is to assemble a sacrifice engine with free or cheap repeatable outlets like Viscera Seer or Thermostatic Engine. Once you have a few expendable creatures and a sac outlet, Lyzolda herself becomes your payoff. You'll chip away at opponents with incremental damage and card advantage until you can close out the game with a token explosion or a sudden damage dump. The deck naturally plays like a grindy midrange strategy that converts tempo into resources.
