Oracle Text

Whenever another Zombie you control dies, if it didn't have decayed, create a 2/2 black Zombie creature token with decayed. (It can't block. When it attacks, sacrifice it at end of combat.)
At the beginning of your end step, you may sacrifice a Zombie. If you do, draw a card.

Character Background

Wilhelt, the Rotcleaver is a perfect commander-style engine for a Zombie value deck, leaning hardest into grindy midrange and attrition rather than pure aggro. His first ability turns every nontoken Zombie death into fresh decayed bodies, which means your creatures keep “paying rent” even after they die, especially in shells packed with sacrifice outlets and recursion. The end-step draw trigger is the real prize: if you can reliably sacrifice a Zombie each turn, Wilhelt quietly turns spare tokens into steady card advantage. That makes him especially strong with cards like Carrion Feeder, Viscera Seer, or Plague Belcher-style effects, and with recursive Zombies such as Diregraf Colossus or Gravecrawler to keep the chain going. Because decayed tokens can’t block, you want to use them aggressively as fuel, not defense. In practice, Wilhelt rewards you for flooding the board, cashing creatures in, and staying ahead on resources while the table struggles to keep up.
