Strategy
Muldrotha, the Gravetide allows one land, one creature, one artifact, one enchantment, and one planeswalker to be replayed from the graveyard each turn, so the deck fills its own graveyard with efficient value creatures and utility permanents and then recurs them endlessly. Splendid Reclamation turns every land in the graveyard into a single explosive mana turn, while Eternal Witness and Golgari Grave-Troll keep restocking the yard with new targets.
Strengths
- ✓ Generates repeatable value with almost no card disadvantage
- ✓ Very resilient to targeted removal since permanents can just come back
- ✓ Splendid Reclamation can produce a huge, sudden mana swing
Weaknesses
- ✗ Graveyard hate is a full answer to the entire strategy
- ✗ Slower to close games than more aggressive Commander decks
- ✗ Requires Muldrotha herself to be in play to function at full speed

Common questions
01 What happens if my opponents exile my graveyard?
It's the deck's biggest weakness — without a graveyard, Muldrotha has nothing to recur, so it's worth holding some proactive plays in reserve rather than relying entirely on the recursion plan.
02 Is Muldrotha good in higher-power pods?
It scales reasonably well since its value compounds over a long game, though it's usually better suited to midrange-focused tables than to fast combo-heavy pods.
