Gríma Wormtongue prevents your opponents from gaining life, which can be crucial against decks that rely on lifegain for sustainability. By sacrificing another creature, you can chip away at an opponent's life total, and if you sacrifice a legendary creature, you can amass Orcs for additional board presence. This card works well in sacrifice and control strategies, especially in black-centric decks. **As a Commander:** Gríma Wormtongue can serve as a Commander in a black-focused deck, utilising its life loss ability to apply pressure on opponents while building an Orc army. However, it may shine more in the 99 of a sacrifice deck, where its synergy with legendary creatures can be fully realised alongside other support cards.
