UNDEAD UNLEASHED UPGRADE with Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver 🛠 Commander Deck Tech 🛠

[@josephalger9393]

One of the best pre cons Iv seen

[@CommanderMechanic]

Hands down one of the most playable out of the box for sure!

[@marvingonzalez926]

I'd disagree on Ruthless Deathfang, to be honest. Remember that Decayed Zombies, which we often have more of than actual creatures, get sacrificed at the end of combat they attack in. Have 'em swing and have the enemy sacrifice everything they own while Ruthless Deathfang is up. And there's other combos with him as well. He has won me more games than any other card in the deck thus far.

[@JakwobTheGreat]

This is one of my favorite precons to date..I've added a bunch to it and it has been playing exactly the way I wanted!!

[@mn6334]

Death Tyrant from the Prosper precon deck is, imo, one of the best cards for this deck. I saw someone else mention it in a comment on another video and I'm definitely getting one for my Wilhelt deck. It makes you (non-Decayed) zombie tokens whenever an attacking creature you control dies. Since Decayed creatures are sacrificed at the end of combat they are still considered attacking creatures so they will trigger Death Tyrant and replace themselves with non-Decayed zombies.

i would add acerarack, it's a two card combo with rooftop storm and even though it's almost useless alone, still a fun way to win

[@blaze556922]

Even if you don't draw rooftop storm Acerarack is still awesome

[@alexanderg4824]

I would add tombstone stairwell. Gets you a lot of zombies quick.

[@Freestylrolla]

Ugh…I keep saying “ok, this is my last deck” 😂😂😂

[@rteishe]

Last few precons really have been great. This one & prosper specifically were so well put together & fun. They really found the sweet spot with the new face commanders to a lot of these too between being powerful & fun but not busted or TOO good. 4 & 5 mana commanders with two abilities...one on-flavor/on-theme ability, and one ability that represents a card's worth of draw or advantage

[@horusemerald97]

This is a really good precon, I must say I'm impressed! Good advice as always, didn't expect that last suggestion about turning it into a Sidisi deck but it makes a lot of sense. It's cool to see a transformation suggestion that's not just "use a different UB zombie commander"!

I think people underestimate Butcher of Malakir too much. Once she hits the field, my opponents can't keep creatures on the field. Every time Wilhelt sacrifices a token, I draw, make another token with decay, opponent sacrifices a creature. Decay token attacks, it dies, opponent sacrifices a creature, wilhelt sacrifices a token, makes a decay token, opponent sacrifices a creature. She doesn't even need to attack. Just sit there and look pretty while my army of tokens grows every turn and damn near gives them all death touch too because your creatures die regardless. If I had one complaint it's just that she's 7 mana, but saying she doesn't synergize with anything is going a bit far. Additionally, between herself and Wilhelt, if my opponent even plays a card that only wipes my side of the board, I still get tokens and my opponent's side gets wiped too so I still come out on top. Like I get that she's expensive but at least at the level of power my friends and I play at, she sticks around and does work. I also think curse of unbinding is better than people give it credit for. The beginning of upkeep trigger means the opponent can't surveil or scry a creature they want which isn't common but it's something. Also taking your opponent's creatures is just fun imo and a big psychological hit. This next point is just my group since we don't play the strongest decks around, but enchantments tend to stay up for quite a while just because of the kinds of decks we have. Also if you're worried that it's not helping your game plan, just enchant yourself so at the upkeep of every turn, you're just getting another zombie from the deck.

I love the infinite combo with factory. I pulled one and saw the immediate potential so I use grimgrin, and others for my free sac outlet

[@noshitsherlock4375]

Tombstone stairwell is a must, even with one creature in your graveyard and Wilhelt on the board, by the time it gets back to you, you have 3 tokens ready to go. Mikaeus, the Unhallowed is also one that I believe absolutely fits by giving you double death and etb triggers.

[@CommanderMechanic]

I love both inclusions but Tombstone Stairwell's recent price spikes kept me from recommending it with a good conscious. Maybe once it comes down in price again.

[@noshitsherlock4375]

@@CommanderMechanic I'm pro proxies simply because paying anything more than $20 for a piece of paper is absurd in my opinion, but I do see where you're coming from, excellent video btw.

[@huskydblstuff8204]

I just purchased undead unleashed for my first commander deck and I want to add Rise of the Dread Marn. help rebuild after those largescale board wipes.

[@guilhermemelo3760]

I think the deathfang is good because of the decayed zombies

[@bestmonkna7720]

Necroduality is strictly better than Reflections. Doesn't have to be cast to get the copy and is 1 mana cheaper.

[@CommanderMechanic]

necroduality hadn't been released at the time of the video, thanks!

[@blaze556922]

Cool vid. It says decklist in the description but I don't see it...

[@crackerman5519]

butcher is one of the best cards in this deck

[@GRYZZLIBAER]

I love it, and I know it might be off topic but do you have a sidisi deck list :)

[@CommanderMechanic]

I did a Sidisi Brood Tyrant list a while ago during a let's do a brew episode - it's not up to date but here's my shell: deck.tk/5h7k5Qc3

[@mars81700]

The deck list doesn’t link anymore. Do you have it still?

[@CommanderMechanic]

You can find it here: deckstats.net/decks/154931/2266963-undead-unleashed-upgrade

[@dylanthornton929]

Hey I’ve tried visiting the deck list but it says page cannot be found? Anyone else having this trouble or is it just a mistype link etc?

Sometimes browsers may flag deckstats - try from a different browser

@@CommanderMechanic I’ve tried 4 different ones still no luck sadly

[@LibertyFixxxer]

What? Your commander makes zombies with decayed. With the dragon, every single decayed zombie dying triggers it
