Deck overview

This Sultai deck harnesses the raw power of Sin, Spira's Punishment to turn the graveyard into an explosive engine of massive token copies. The game plan focuses on spending the early turns ramping mana and stocking the graveyard with game-ending permanents through dredge and self-mill effects like Golgari Grave-Troll, Underrealm Lich, and Ballad of the Black Flag. Once mana reaches seven on Turn 5, casting Sin immediately copies a random permanent from the graveyard to the battlefield, repeating if it exiles a land. On Turn 6, Sin attacks to trigger another random copy while applying heavy aerial pressure. High-impact payloads such as Archon of Cruelty, Jin-Gitaxias, Core Augur, and Jumbo Cactuar decimate opposing life totals and resources. Backup lines through Natural Order, Reanimate, and Rise of the Dark Realms ensure the deck presents overwhelming must-answer threats even if the commander is removed.
