Deck overview

This is a Sultai spellslinger deck helmed by Damia, Sage of Stone, built around a dense instant/sorcery package with a heavy graveyard-recursion subtheme. The primary plan is to refill the hand every upkeep with Damia's draw trigger, then leverage recursion engines like Lier, Disciple of the Drowned, Muldrotha, the Gravetide, and The Dawning Archaic to cast the same spells repeatedly. The deck wins through the Chain of Smog + Witherbloom Apprentice / Professor Onyx infinite-magecraft combo, backed by big X-spell finishers (Torment of Hailfire, Exsanguinate, Villainous Wealth), storm Tendrils of Agony, and Time Stretch extra turns amplified by copy effects. Damia is a pure card-advantage engine rather than a combo piece - the win lines live entirely in the 99, making the deck resilient to commander removal.
