Deck overview
This Bant "tap/untap" deck helmed by Derevi, Empyrial Tactician aims to generate overwhelming value through combat damage triggers. The core loop is connecting with evasive creatures to draw cards (via Edric, Spymaster of Trest, Coastal Piracy, Bident of Thassa, etc.) and untap lands (via Derevi, Nature's Will, Seedborn Muse), which fuels further plays. Primary win conditions are combat damage amplified by Beastmaster Ascension or the alternate win of Strixhaven Stadium and The Millennium Calendar. Extra turns from Medomai the Ageless and extra beginning phases from Sphinx of the Second Sun and Shadow of the Second Sun accelerate the clock. The deck is a midrange value engine that snowballs once it connects, but it lacks fast combo lines and is vulnerable to disruption.
