Strategy notes

Eln’s Venom Cleaver is a mono-black Commander voltron/control deck built around suiting up its commander with deathtouch, evasion, and combat-boosting Equipment/Auras to dominate combat and pressure opponents with commander damage.

Its key synergies revolve around cards like Gorgon Flail, Gorgon's Head, Aspect of Gorgon, Coat with Venom, and Virulent Swipe to grant deathtouch, plus Fireshrieker, Brass Knuckles, Hero’s Blade, and Grafted Wargear to increase damage output. Whispersilk Cloak, Prowler’s Helm, Access Tunnel, and Rogue’s Passage help the commander connect reliably. The deck also uses edict creatures like Fleshbag Marauder, Plaguecrafter, and Accursed Marauder, along with removal and sweep effects such as Pestilence and Crypt Rats, to keep boards clear.

It aims to win primarily by repeated commander attacks, often leveraging first strike/double strike with deathtouch for brutal combat, while using reanimation/protection tricks like **Kaya’s Ghostform
