Deck overview

This Grixis deck is commanded by Kefka, Court Mage and focuses on symmetric discard attrition, engine-based card advantage, and mass reanimation. It aims to empty opponents' hands early using cards like Oppression, Bottomless Pit, and Necrogen Mists. While opponents lose resources, the deck generates huge card advantage and mana through Waste Not, Bone Miser, and Geth's Grimoire, alongside Kefka's draw triggers. Once hands are depleted, the deck converts discard into victory with punisher effects such as Liliana's Caress and Megrim, by stealing permanents with Tergrid, God of Fright, or by casting game-ending spells like Rise of the Dark Realms and Sheoldred // The True Scriptures. Robust reanimation spells and efficient interaction ensure the deck remains resilient against opposing disruption.
