Muldrotha, the Gravetide Commander Guide

Commander overview

Muldrotha, the Gravetide is strongest when the deck is built like a permanent-based prison-value engine. The commander wants your graveyard to operate as a second hand, which means creatures, enchantments, artifacts, and lands that are useful once and even better the second time. Every instant or sorcery you play has to justify not being replayable.

How this deck wins

Muldrotha usually wins by drowning the table in repeatable permanence. Seal of Primordium, Spore Frog, Pernicious Deed, Mystic Remora, Strip Mine, and similar permanents turn one card into a problem every single turn cycle, and eventually the commander starts feeling like a hard lock rather than just value.

Common mistakes

The biggest mistake is too many one-shot spells. The second is playing expensive permanents that do not change the board the turn they come down. Muldrotha is excellent because her cheap permanents keep trading up from the graveyard, not because she lets you recast random seven-drops.
