Overseer of the Damned
Overseer of the Damned is a practical inclusion for black commander lists that lean into attrition and board control. It arrives as a 5/5 flyer for six mana and offers a removal trigger on entry that lets you immediately answer a threat. The secondary ability rewards careful disruption because each time a non token creature an opponent controls dies you generate a tapped 2/2 black Zombie token which helps rebuild your board while pressuring opponents who trade into your removal spells.
From a lore perspective this Demon fits the Karlov Manor mood by converting battlefield casualties into disciplined aggression. In play the card reads as both a one time swing and a steady value engine that complements sacrifice synergies and sacrifice outlets. Near Mint English printing makes it a reliable pick for collectors and players who want a clean copy that will see play in multiplayer pods and commander tables.
