warlock is a 100-card Commander deck led by Lorcan, Warlock Collector in the mono-black color identity. TableCommander estimates this deck at bracket 3 — upgraded / mid-power.

The mainboard runs 9 creatures, 10 instants, 12 sorceries, 23 artifacts, 9 enchantments, 2 planeswalkers, and 35 lands, averaging 3.23 mana value across non-land cards. 65% of non-land cards cost 3 mana or less; 25% cost 5 or more.

Notable inclusions: 3 game changers (Demonic Tutor, Vampiric Tutor, and Bolas's Citadel), 4 fast mana (e.g. Dark Ritual, Cabal Ritual, and Culling the Weak), and 7 tutors (e.g. Diabolic Tutor, Grim Tutor, and Treasure Chest). This deck is currently Commander-legal on TableCommander.
