For this card and Vito have a synergy like none other. Bond of Revival and Command the Dread Hoard are a few of my personal faves.īut the real powerhouses that follow Vito loyally into battle are Exquisite Blood and planeswalker Sorin, Imperious Bloodlord.Įxquisite Blood is essential. Return cards are necessary as always to combat removal of YOUR creatures. Newer cards like Blood Curdle and Dirge Bat work here, but older cards like Final Death and Curse of the Cabal work too. In the deck are the usual elements of re moval and return. To add insult to the injury, there are many creatures with LIFELINK that will feed VITO’S damage engine. Twilight Prophet, Vampire Soverign and Shadows of the Past are just a few.Īdded to them are a few cards that cause your opponent to loose life. The deck also has a multitude of other cards that may not have EXTORT, but do the same type of thing. This keyword is mainly used in a Orzhov deck with white and black. Cards like Synicate Enforcer, Thrull Parasite, Pontiff of Blight, Basilica Shreaker and Crypt Ghast are the few that run only on swamps. If you do, each opponent loses 1 life and you gain life equal to the total life lost this way.”ĮXTORT goes back to GATECRASH and fits Vito’s playset perfectly. “ Extort” means “Whenever you cast a spell, you may pay. But another keyword that is older and not as present in the meta comes to mind as quite helpful here.
But LIFELINK is absolutely one of the major keywords in the black wedge of the MTG colorwheel. Now, without green and white in this card, it makes life gain a tad challenging since the best cards in this respect are found there. That withstanding, as always, if you build it with the right synergy, the deck will move as a well oiled machine making the deck the sum of it’s parts and not a one card engine. The problem, as with every commander is keeping it on the field. Our man Panda has taken on the task of presenting a COMMANDER DECK headed by this very promising legendary. Being a big fan of lifegain, the process of doing damage with life gain was very appealing. From the very first spoiler for Vito, Thorn of the Dusk Rose, I’ve had my eye on it.
