Deck overview

This deck is an Orzhov Aura Voltron and Enchantress strategy commanded by Killian, Decisive Mentor. Killian reduces the cost of targeted spells, enabling rapid deployment of low-cost Auras that buff power, grant evasion, and draw cards. Each enchantment entering the battlefield triggers Killian to tap down a blocker and goad an opposing creature, dismantling opponent defenses while directing enemy attacks toward each other. The deck scales commander damage using cards like Ethereal Armor, All That Glitters, and Super State, while drawing cards through enchantresses like Sram, Senior Edificer and Light-Paws, Emperor's Voice. An elite suite of white protection spells defends key pieces from removal and sweepers. As an alternate win condition, the deck can tutor and execute an infinite life-drain loop using Enduring Tenacity and Exquisite Blood.
