Deck overview

This deck is an Esper Knight tribal and reanimator strategy piloted by Sidar Jabari of Zhalfir. It maximizes Jabari's eminence ability to loot cards whenever Knights attack, sculpting the hand while discarding high-impact Knight payoffs into the graveyard. Once Sidar Jabari enters combat, his combat-damage trigger resurrects major threats such as Herald of Hoofbeats, Vodalian Wave-Knight, and Cavalier of Night straight onto the battlefield for free. The deck transitions into lethal combat via horsemanship, double strike, and anthem counters, supported by asymmetric board clear spells like Raise the Palisade and Winnowing. Strong protection spells such as Flare of Fortitude and Dawn's Truce safeguard key turns, while Haakon, Stromgald Scourge and Knights' Charge provide reliable recursion against control strategies.
