Deck overview

Queen Marchesa commands a defensive Mardu pillowfort and control shell designed to introduce and protect the monarch mechanic. The primary game plan is to establish deterrents like Ghostly Prison, Baird, Steward of Argive, and Windborn Muse to make attacking you unprofitable. While opponents fight amongst themselves, you accumulate massive card advantage and board presence through monarch triggers and powerful enchantments like Court of Embereth, Court of Grace, and Court of Ire. You close out the game through inevitable burn triggers from the Courts, overwhelming token armies produced by Skyline Despot and Assemble the Legion, or a decisive swing funded by Forth Eorlingas! and Ruinous Ultimatum.
