Deck overview

This Mono-White Equipment deck is helmed by Ekthi, Contaminator Priest, whose living weapon ability transforms every Equipment into a self-contained threat: each one enters with a 0/0 Germ token that carries it. The deck floods the board with Equipment, suits up its Germs (and a handful of creature carriers) with massive stat sticks like Colossus Hammer and Kaldra Compleat, and closes games through combat damage, life-halving effects (Quietus Spike, Scytheclaw), infect (Blightsteel Colossus), and annihilator (Nazgul Battle-Mace). A dense draw and tutor package - Sram, Senior Edificer, Puresteel Paladin, Stoneforge Mystic - keeps the Equipment flowing, while Caretaker's Talent and Mirrormind Crown push a token-copying subtheme. The deck plays as a resilient, midrange voltron strategy that rebuilds quickly through Open the Vaults and Forge Anew.
