Deck overview

This mono-blue control deck uses Samut, Tyrant of Naktamun to grant all instant and sorcery spells split second. This ability prevents opponents from responding on the stack, turning standard counterspells and removal into uncounterable answers. The deck develops early using cost reducers like Baral, Chief of Compliance and Sapphire Medallion, paired with draw engines like Archmage Emeritus and Rhystic Study. It controls the game tempo until it reaches 6 to 7 mana, where it deploys Hullbreaker Horror with flash. From there, it loops mana rocks to generate infinite mana, bounces all opposing permanents, and forces opponents to draw their entire decks with Blue Sun's Zenith. Alternatively, wide token generators like Talrand, Sky Summoner provide a combat win condition under split-second protection.
