    You have the highest life total among all players.

    Steps

    Cast Plague of Vermin, paying at least as much life as the opponent with the highest life total has. Resolve Plague Vermin, creating an amount of Rats equal to the amount of life you paid. Corpse Knight triggers for each Rat, causing each opponent to lose 1 life for each Rat.

  • Corpse Knight + Tree of Perdition + Offspring's Revenge

    • Near-infinite lifeloss for target opponent
    • Target opponent loses the game

    Mana needed: 1 decks on Commander Spellbook

    How it works

    Steps

    At the beginning of your combat phase, Offspring's Revenge triggers, exiling Tree of Perdition from your graveyard and creating a 1/1 copy of it with haste. When the Tree of Perdition token enters the battlefield, Corpse Knight triggers. Holding priority, activate the Tree of Perdition token by tapping it, swapping an opponent's life total with Tree of Perdition's toughness. Resolve the Corpse Knight trigger, causing each opponent to lose 1 life. The opponent whose life total was swapped loses the game due to having zero or les life.
