Ob Nixilis, the Fallen

Ob Nixilis, the Fallen turns your land drops into a dual-purpose engine: ping opponents for life loss while pumping your commander into an evasive threat. Every land entering the battlefield triggers landfall, letting you dome someone for 3 life and stack counters on Ob simultaneously. This means you're playing a ramp-heavy deck that doubles as a clock—you're not just fixing your mana, you're actively pressuring the table.

The deck wants to maximize land triggers through fetch lands, sacrifice outlets like Zuran Orb, and landfall doublers such as Scute Swarm or Omnath, Locus of Creation. You'll use black's tutors and ramp spells to set up explosive turns where you're triggering landfall multiple times in one go. Once Ob is large enough, he becomes a genuine threat; combined with evasion like flying from equipment or simple combat damage, he closes out games faster than pure burn would.
