Deck overview
This Sultai midrange deck is piloted by The Wise Mothman, converting radiation and mill triggers into explosive +1/+1 counter distribution and crushing aerial pressure. The primary game plan accelerates into a Turn 3 commander, spreading rad counters that force each player to mill nonland cards and lose life during their pre-combat main phases. Each nonland card milled places +1/+1 counters on your creatures, rapidly growing Mothman into a lethal flying threat while counter multipliers like Hardened Scales, Winding Constrictor, and Branching Evolution supercharge board power. The deck supplements this combat clock with potent mill engines like Mesmeric Orb and Altar of the Brood, deep graveyard recursion through Evolution Witness and The Master, Transcendent, and a compact infinite combo in Bloodchief Ascension paired with Mindcrank. Robust instant-speed protection shields the board from board wipes while the deck steadily closes out games.
