Deck overview

This is a midrange Phyrexian poison deck helmed by Vishgraz, the Doomhive, leveraging the ten-poison-rule to close out games against all opponents simultaneously. The primary plan is to spread poison counters early via cheap toxic creatures and deploy Vishgraz, the Doomhive|Vishgraz for an immediate swarm of mites that grow larger as opponents accumulate counters. Proliferate effects, repeatable combat triggers, and a few high-power infectious threats (Tyrranax Rex, Paladin of Predation) accelerate the clock. The deck lacks conventional infinite combos, relying instead on incremental poison accumulation, moderate recursion, and one-off board resets. A small number of protection spells and conditional one-sided board wipes keep the poison train running.
