Deck overview

This deck is a colorless big-mana stompy and attrition build helmed by Ultima, Origin of Oblivion. The primary game plan centers on deploying efficient colorless acceleration on Turns 1 through 3 to cast Ultima ahead of curve on Turn 4. Beginning on Turn 5, attacking with Ultima converts opposing utility lands into colorless mana sources and doubles the mana generated by the pilot's own colorless lands. This immense mana velocity enables two synergistic angles: deploying oppressive asymmetric lock pieces such as Winter Orb, Static Orb, and Void Winnower that cripple colored mana bases, and resolving game-ending Eldrazi titans whose cast triggers and annihilator abilities dismantle opposing boards. The deck also harbors an infinite colorless mana combo through Basalt Monolith and Rings of Brighthearth to close games abruptly with Walking Ballista. While extremely resilient once titan-class permanents are established, the deck relies heavily on artifact acceleration and suffers from sparse instant-speed interaction.
