Myrkul, Lord of Bones

Myrkul turns your creatures' deaths into permanent value by converting them into enchantment copies that stick around forever. You'll build a sacrifice-heavy deck where creatures naturally die through combat, block trades, or your own effects—then Myrkul lets you keep the best ones as indestructible enchantments. This creates a growing army of threats that your opponents can't easily remove, while also fueling graveyard synergies and triggering death-matters payoffs.

The deck thrives on creatures with strong enter-the-battlefield or death triggers: think Mulldrifter, Ephemerate targets, Siege Rhino, or anything with solid stats. You'll run sacrifice outlets like Viscera Seer or Ashnod's Altar to trigger Myrkul's ability on your own terms, and cards like Zulaport Cutthroat or Viscera Seer create additional value when creatures die. Myrkul's indestructible clause also acts as a soft damage sink—as long as you keep life total awareness, he becomes nearly unkillable, making him a resilient commander that sticks around to keep enabling your strategy.
