Sharuum the Hegemon

Sharuum the Hegemon is a powerful artifact-focused commander that generates value the moment she hits the battlefield. Her enters-the-battlefield ability lets you recur artifacts from your graveyard, which means you're looking to build a deck packed with impactful artifact creatures and combo pieces that can be repeatedly abused. The gameplan revolves around filling your graveyard with artifacts early, then using Sharuum to reanimate them while building toward either a combo finish or grinding out value until opponents can't keep up.

The most efficient lines involve artifact combo pieces like Sculpting Steel and Mirror Image, which can copy Sharuum herself and trigger her ETB ability repeatedly for infinite artifact reanimation loops. Even without going for the combo kill, you can simply play as an artifact-focused midrange deck, recurring threats like Baleful Strix, Solemn Simulacrum, and Mulldrifter while controlling the board. Your flying body also applies pressure, and in the grindier games, you'll outvalue opponents through card draw and tutoring effects.
