Strategy notes

Karlov Afterlife Engine is an Orzhov (white-black) aristocrats/sacrifice-combo Commander deck. It wants to flood the board with disposable creatures and tokens, then repeatedly sacrifice them for value using outlets like Viscera Seer, Carrion Feeder, Ashnod’s Altar, Phyrexian Altar, Altar of Dementia, and Yawgmoth.

Its core synergies come from death triggers and token production: cards like Blood Artist, Zulaport Cutthroat, Cruel Celebrant, Bastion of Remembrance, Elas il-Kor, and Corpse Knight drain opponents as creatures enter and die, while Jadar, Ophiomancer, Bitterblossom, Skrelv’s Hive, Requiem Angel, Hallowed Spiritkeeper, Elenda, and Anointed Procession/Mondrak keep the fodder flowing. Pitiless Plunderer, Pawn of Ulamog, Sifter of Skulls, Skullclamp, and the altars turn those deaths into mana, cards, and combo potential.

The deck typically wins by **loop
