Deck overview

This is a Grixis spellslinger/amass deck built around Saruman, the White Hand. The plan is to land Saruman early, then chain high-mana-value instants and sorceries so every noncreature cast grows a massive Orc Army. The Army closes the game either by being flung with Fling, Kazuul's Fury // Kazuul's Cliffs, or Callous Sell-Sword // Burn Together, or by detonating across the entire table with Chandra's Ignition. Spell-copy and recursion engines-Arcane Bombardment, Complete the Circuit, Increasing Vengeance, Spellweaver Volute, and Glamdring-turn single spells into multiple triggers and keep the graveyard feeding extra casts. Ovika, Enigma Goliath, Storm-Kiln Artist, and Archmage Emeritus provide secondary payoffs, while Nexus of Fate can steal an extra turn to attack or amass again. This is a value-oriented, non-combo midrange deck with one big, explosive finish rather than an early infinite kill.
