Deck overview

This is a Mardu Treasure-generation deck helmed by Vihaan, Goldwaker, built to weaponize the Treasure tokens most decks treat as disposable mana. The primary plan is to vomit out as many Treasure tokens as possible through engines like Smothering Tithe, Magda, Brazen Outlaw, Xorn, Mondrak, Glory Dominus, and Professional Face-Breaker, then use Vihaan's combat trigger to turn that hoard into a 3/3 swarm with haste and vigilance. Wins come through combat with a giant animated board, artifact-drain payoffs like Marionette Master, Mirkwood Bats, and Reckless Fireweaver, and the alternate artifact-count victory conditions in Hellkite Tyrant and Knuckles the Echidna. The deck is a midrange value engine that seeks to out-multiply the table, with Revel in Riches as a classic Treasure hoard alt-win.
