Deck overview

This deck is an Azorius Group Hug and Pillowfort strategy commanded by Sokrates, Athenian Teacher. The deck accelerates card velocity for the entire table using symmetric draw artifacts, enchantments, and Sokrates's combat prevention ability. To ensure survival, it establishes a dense fortress of attack taxes including Ghostly Prison, Propaganda, and Windborn Muse, while restricting explosive opposing turns with Rule of Law. As hands swell and hand size limits are removed through cards like Decanter of Endless Water and Reliquary Tower, the deck digs toward decisive alternate win conditions. It closes the game either through passive group life drain using Psychosis Crawler and Scrawling Crawler, or through alternate victory triggers via Triskaidekaphile and Laboratory Maniac. A rich suite of cheap counterspells and phase-out protection ensures the pilot can defend critical pieces during the winning turn cycle.
