Commissar Severina Raine

Gameplan

Build a wide board of cheap creatures, then attack with Raine to drain each opponent for the number of other attackers while your team chips in combat damage. Between turns, convert your expendable bodies into cards and life with Summary Execution, keeping the gas flowing in a grindy attrition game.

Key Cards

• Skullclamp — Turns your dying or sacrificed tokens into a relentless card-draw engine alongside Summary Execution.
• Bitterblossom — Generates a steady stream of fliers to widen the board for Raine's drain and fuel sacrifice.
• Anointed Procession — Doubles your token output, dramatically increasing both attackers and the life lost from Leading from the Front.
• Cathars' Crusade — Each token entering pumps the whole team, turning a wide attack into lethal combat damage on top of the drain.
• Zulaport Cutthroat — Adds drain triggers every time a creature dies, stacking with Summary Execution for inevitable life loss.
• Smothering Tithe — Provides the heavy mana you need to repeatedly fire off Summary Execution and rebuild after wipes.

Upgrade Path

Add efficient token doublers (Anointed Procession, Mondrak) and sac outlets/payoffs (Viscera Seer, Blood Artist, Bastion of Remembrance) to make every creature death matter. Improve the mana with Smothering Tithe, fast rocks, and dual lands so Summary Execution and big token turns come online faster. Round out with protection and recursion like Teferi's Protection, Liliana, Dreadhorde General, and a board-wipe insurance plan such as Return to Dust and Faith's Reward.
