Deck overview

This Orzhov enchantment/aura deck is helmed by Killian, Decisive Mentor, leveraging his ability to goad creatures and draw cards when enchanted creatures attack. The primary strategy involves deploying a suite of goad auras (Coercive Impetus, Ghoulish Impetus, Parasitic Impetus) to control the board while building a resilient, aura-enchanted creature (often the commander itself) into a dominant voltron threat. Card advantage comes from the commander's draw trigger, supplemented by Sram, Senior Edificer, Kor Spiritdancer, and one-shot draw auras. Recursion via Mantle of the Ancients, Replenish, and Sun Titan ensures the engine can recover from disruption. The deck wins through combat damage from a highly enchanted creature, with Eldrazi Conscription and All That Glitters providing explosive finishes. It forgoes infinite combos in favor of sustained value and board control.
