Strategy

How this commander wants to play

Odric, Blood-Cursed turns your creature's keyword abilities into a resource engine. The plan is simple: build a board of creatures with diverse keywords (flying, haste, lifelink, menace, etc.), then cast or bounce Odric to generate Blood tokens equal to the number of *different* keywords present. Those Blood tokens fuel sacrifice outlets, card draw, or mana ramps, turning your creature synergies into raw value.

The deck wants to pack creatures with overlapping keywords so Odric generates maximum tokens each time. Pairing this with cards that grant keywords (like equipment, Collective Unconscious effects, or anthem effects) amplifies the payoff. You're essentially converting board diversity into repeatable value, then using those tokens to close out the game through sacrifice synergies, aristocrat effects, or simply overloading the table with threats.

Budget Build

Same gameplan, less money

Skip pricey keyword lords like Coat of Arms; use cheaper anthems (Intrepid Adversary, Shared Animosity) and lean on common creatures with natural keyword overlap.
