Deck overview

This deck is an aggressive Orzhov artifact deck that leverages Greasefang, Okiba Boss to cheat massive Vehicles directly from the graveyard into combat. By running efficient discard outlets and mill pieces like Entomb, Putrid Imp, and Raffine's Informant, the deck consistently lands game-warping threats such as Parhelion II, Reaver Titan, and Thunderhawk Gunship on Turn 3 or 4. Greasefang provides haste and enough power to crew these behemoths immediately, generating overwhelming board presence and token armies before opponents establish defenses. While the primary game plan aims to overrun the table through sustained aerial combat damage, the list includes an alternate instant-win combo in Heliod, Sun-Crowned and Walking Ballista. The deck balances explosive starts with robust spot removal and defensive protection, though it remains vulnerable to targeted graveyard interaction and removal aimed at Greasefang before combat triggers.
