This card would be a great fit for a graveyard-focused deck that aims to reanimate creatures and overwhelm opponents with a swarm of powerful tokens. While Gyrus, Waker of Corpses offers a unique and versatile ability, other cards like Muldrotha, the Gravetide or Meren of Clan Nel Toth may provide more consistent value in a similar strategy. However, Gyrus could still see play in decks looking for a different angle of attack or seeking to surprise opponents with its token generation and combat abilities.
