Lord of Tresserhorn
$3.56

Grixis beatdown around a cheap 10/4 regenerating Zombie, using tokens and Torpor Orb to soften its brutal enter-the-battlefield cost.
Read more
Lord of Tresserhorn is a 10/4 for four mana that regenerates for {B}. The catch comes when it enters: you lose 2 life, sacrifice two creatures and an opponent of your choice draws two cards. Builds work around that drawback in a few ways. Some pack token makers and creatures with harsh downsides they are happy to sacrifice. Others play Torpor Orb, which stops the trigger entirely. After that, a 10-power regenerating body is a fast clock on commander damage alone.
In the recorded games, the lists varied a lot, from Zombie tokens to an infect version that used Bitterblossom for fodder and Tainted Strike to turn one hit into ten poison counters. Grave Titan was a strong follow-up since its Zombies cover the next sacrifice. When the Lord connected, games ended quickly. The problems were consistent, though. The forced sacrifices cost tempo, and targeted removal kept the deck from snowballing. Force of Vigor taking out Torpor Orb and Bitterblossom early set one game back badly, and the deck had few clean answers to artifact combos.
