Deck overview

This mono-blue Merfolk tribal deck leverages its commander, Neerdiv, Devious Diver, as a repeatable card-advantage engine that transforms a full graveyard into draws and a growing threat. The core plan is to fill the bin via self-mill, combat triggers, and discard outlets, then cast spells from the graveyard (flashback, disturb, escape, jump-start, etc.) to trigger Neerdiv's draw and +1/+1 counters while building a Merfolk board with evasion and lords. The primary win condition is creature combat-using unblockable, flying, and pumped Merfolk-supplemented by incidental mill (Screaming Swarm, Towering-Wave Mystic). The deck lacks infinite combos and instead aims for incremental grind, making it a slower, value-oriented strategy.
