Deck overview

This deck is a high-power Jund Reanimator and Treasure Aristocrats strategy helmed by Ziatora, the Incinerator. The deck accelerates in the opening turns using efficient mana dorks, land ramp, and early reanimation spells to cheat massive Dragons and value threats onto the battlefield ahead of curve. Once Ziatora, the Incinerator enters play, it converts high-power creatures into direct burn and bursts of Treasure tokens at each end step. These Treasures fuel massive mana velocity, trigger drain effects from Mirkwood Bats and Marionette Apprentice, and enable overwhelming combat steps. The deck can close games through sustained flying Dragon beatdown, repeated flings, or compact combo lines such as Old Gnawbone with Aggravated Assault for infinite combats, and Magda, Brazen Outlaw with Clock of Omens to tutor every Dragon directly into play. Robust low-cost protection spells defend the board while versatile spot removal disrupts critical opposing plays.
