Planeswalker.
Queen of the Golgari.
But even with everything she’s accomplished, one thing she’s never done is helmed a commander deck.
Vraska has had a long, complicated history in Magic: The Gathering.
So whilethey’ll retain all of their abilities, they won’t be able to attack or block.
For a traditional deck that wins by combat damage, this isn’t a great scenario.

Evolving Wilds and Terramorphic Expanse won’t accelerate your mana, but they will fix it.
Necropotence is perhapsthe most powerful draw spell available in commander.
Playing conservatively, this will let you refill your hand at the end of every turn.
After all, she’s an Assassin, not a Berserker.
Just be aware that your opponent gets a consolation prize for each of them.
Finally, remember to include a couple of creatures that can consistently destroy creatures.
Vraska’s Contempt by Clint Cearley
Redundancy is important, but Golgari decks don’t usually have much positive interaction with artifacts.
You remember those creatures you turned into Treasures?
Don’t worry about chump blockers: green has all the trample enabling efffects you could want.
Xenic Poltergeist is a 1/1 black creature that taps to do the same thing Karn does.
Revel in Riches is about the most synergistic card you’ll find for Vraska, the Silencer.
Fewer if you’re using other Treasure generators.
So look for ways to get a little more value out of your artifacts.
Alternatively, Clock of Omens allows you to tap two artifacts so you can untap a third.
Finally, Vraska, the Silencer will work surprisingly well with reanimation builds.
Sacrifice all of your creatures except Vraska before playing Living Death, so that you get them back immediately.
This is also a good reason to include a sacrifice engine in almost every deck.
This is also a good opportunity to get the death effects from borrowed creatures like Solemn Simulacrum.
These popular black/green Golgari archetypes in MTG can help you gain an advantage over your opponent.
