Deck overview

This deck is a Five-Color Room Enchantress strategy commanded by Marina Vendrell. It leverages the unique mechanics of Duskmourn Room enchantments, using Marina's enters-the-battlefield ability to dig seven cards deep for enchantments and her tap ability to unlock expensive doors for free. The deck navigates the early game by developing five-color mana fixing and casting cost reducers such as Inquisitive Glimmer and Jukai Naturalist. Once established, engines like Sythis, Harvest's Hand and Entity Tracker turn every enchantment drop and door unlock into continuous card advantage. Defensive enchantments including Sphere of Safety and Propaganda create high attack taxes that neutralize aggressive boards, while Fear of Sleep Paralysis locks down opposing threats with permanent stun counters. The deck builds toward an alternate win condition via Central Elevator // Promising Stairs, assembling eight distinct unlocked doors to win on upkeep, or overwhelms opponents with flying Spirit and Demon tokens generated by eerie triggers.
