MTG Duskmourn is set to release soon, featuring four preconstructed commander decks, including Endless Punishment. Led by Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls, this deck mainly focuses on stacking the commander's stats by having opponents lose life. Doing so will also give the controller card advantage due to the card draw triggers Valgavoth has.
The question now is, will Endless Punishment be a strong preconstructed commander deck in MTG? Here is the full deck reveal.
MTG Endless Punishment Commander Deck
MTG Duskmourn preconstructed commander decks will hit local game stores (LGS) on September 27, 2024. Each deck is expected to cost between $47 and $50, depending on the store.
For those interested in the Duskmourn precons, here's all the essential information about the upcoming Endless Punishment deck.
Commander
Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls
Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls is a four-cost (two generic, one black, and one red) legendary creature with Flying. It also was Ward – Pay 2 life.
Whenever an opponent loses life for the first time during each of their turns, put a +1/+1 counter on Valgavoth, Harrower of Souls and draw a card.
For those looking to optimize the Endless Punishment deck, it's best to add enchantments or creatures that could cause opponents to lose life due to certain triggers. Doing so will consistently trigger Valgavoth's abilities.
