Deck overview

This deck is a mid-power Grixis attrition strategy commanded by Kefka, Court Mage. Its game plan revolves around leveraging symmetric discard triggers to strip opponent resources while turning those discards into massive card advantage via Kefka's draw ability. The deck transitions into the mid-game by establishing continuous damage multipliers and noncombat burn triggers through cards like Megrim, Waste Not, Black Waltz No. 3, and Kuja, Genome Sorcerer. As opponents' life totals fall, heavy attrition finishers like Psychosis Crawler, Syr Konrad, the Grim, and Bolas's Citadel accelerate the clock, eventually culminating in a sweeping finish or a mass reanimation blowout with Rise of the Dark Realms. While the deck generates high card flow once Kefka attacks, it features a slow ramp suite, minimal stack interaction, and limited protection for its key permanents, requiring calculated sequencing to survive until its damage engines overwhelm the table.
