Steve Argyle is probably best known for producing artwork for some of the most recognizable cards in Magic: The Gathering, including Liliana of the Veil. What you may not know about Steve is that he is a fan of the Commander format. Today, we feature a Commander deck tech filmed this past weekend at Grand Prix Albuquerque. Steve's Karador, Ghost Chieftain deck fills up his graveyard first—and then your graveyard second—as he brings some of the most powerful creatures in the history of Magic back from the dead. This control deck is looking to bury you.
