Deck overview

This deck is an Esper topdeck-control strategy led by Yennett, Cryptic Sovereign. The primary game plan accelerates Yennett onto the battlefield by Turn 4 using 2-mana and 3-mana artifacts. On Turn 5, Yennett attacks to reveal and cast devastating odd-cost spells for free, bypassing their high mana costs. Cards like Sensei's Divining Top, Brainstorm, and Aminatou, the Fateshifter stack the top of the library with game-altering payoffs such as Void Winnower, Breach the Multiverse, and Toxrill, the Corrosive. The deck controls opposing boards through spot removal and asymmetric sweepers while accumulating massive tempo advantages through free spells. Because it closes games through combat damage rather than infinite combos, it requires three attack steps after onset to eliminate the table. While highly explosive when Yennett connects, the deck is vulnerable to targeted removal during the turn cycle before its commander can attack.
