Gisa, the Hellraiser: Rally the Gravebound
Gisa, the Hellraiser is a compact, command-oriented legend for players who lean into graveyard synergy and creature swarms. As a four mana, black heavy commander option, she provides an ongoing anthem effect that turns Skeletons and Zombies into a more threatening force by granting them +1/+1 and menace. Her presence alone presses opponents to answer the board or face repeated, evasive blockers and attackers that scale with your token package.
Her Ward ability imposes a consistent tax that can deter cheap removal, while the crime triggered token generation offers repeatable board development. Commit a crime and you get two tapped 2/2 blue and black Zombie Rogues, but note that the token trigger is limited to once each turn. In practice she supports both attrition style play and midrange pushes, and pairs well with self mill, discard outlets, and sacrifice synergies common to Outlaws of Thunder Junction.
