Deck overview

Grima, Saruman's Footman leads a Dimir "steal-and-cast" deck that wants to attack with an unblockable 1/4 and turn combat damage into free opponents' instants and sorceries. The 99 is built around redundant theft creatures - Dazzling Sphinx, Fallen Shinobi, Thief of Sanity, Wrexial, the Risen Deep - plus spell-copy effects and token payoffs like Talrand, Sky Summoner, Lord of the Nazgul, and Shark Typhoon. Equipment such as Fireshrieker and Genji Glove multiply combat triggers, while clone effects like Sakashima of a Thousand Faces, Spark Double, and Impostor Syndrome create additional copies of Grima. The deck has no deterministic infinite combo; its path to victory is grinding value: steal spells, build a token army, copy the best spells, and use extra combat phases to bury opponents in card advantage. It is a resilient midrange strategy that thrives in longer, grindier pods.
