Deck overview

This deck is a 5-color enchantment strategy built around the Duskmourn Room mechanic and Gate mana base, piloted by Marina Vendrell. The primary game plan focuses on using green Gate tutors and ramp spells to establish all five colors by Turn 5. Once the mana base is operational, Marina Vendrell enters the battlefield to draw a burst of enchantment cards and cheat door unlock costs. The deck wins primarily through Central Elevator // Promising Stairs, assembling eight distinct unlocked doors to trigger an instant win on upkeep, or secondarily by swarming the board with large tokens via Dollmaker's Shop // Porcelain Gallery, Hallowed Haunting, and Sigil of the Empty Throne. While the deck features outstanding card draw and resilient mass recursion through Brilliant Restoration, it is vulnerable to enchantment board wipes and relies on taplands that slow early development.
