Deck overview

This deck is a 5-color Midrange engine centered on the mutate mechanic, piloted by Ramos, Dragon Engine. The game plan establishes an elusive non-Human creature base early, utilizing cheap hexproof targets like Gladecover Scout and Slippery Bogle alongside enablers like Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief. Once a mutate foundation is built, chaining multicolored mutate creatures rapidly adds +1/+1 counters to Ramos, Dragon Engine, unlocking a ten-mana surge to cast overwhelming game-ending spells like Genesis Ultimatum and Auspicious Starrix. The deck excels at exponential resource generation, stacking triggers that draw cards, ramp lands, destroy opposing permanents, and drain life totals. Supported by graveyard recursion from Nethroi, Apex of Death and Eerie Ultimatum, the list maintains resilience against conventional removal while finishing opponents through large, evasive combat attacks and incremental mutate burn.
