Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This Sultai deck is helmed by Kotis, the Fangkeeper, a resilient (indestructible) 2/1 that turns combat damage into a free-casting engine from the opponent's library. The primary plan is to make Kotis unblockable, stack +1/+1 counters and equipment to push his damage high, then use the exiled cards to snowball into a win. The deck also packs several alternate win packages: a "draw punisher" kill using Peer into the Abyss with Underworld Dreams, Ob Nixilis, the Hate-Twisted, and Psychosis Crawler; a nominal Laboratory Maniac/Jace, Wielder of Mysteries self-mill line (though with two basics Hermit Druid is unreliable); and equipment-based combat inevitability. The list is a blend of Voltron consistency and combo resilience, supported by a dense interaction suite.
