Deck overview

This deck is a Sultai theft-and-value engine helmed by Gonti, Canny Acquisitor, aiming to exile opponents' cards through combat damage triggers and then cast them at a discount. The primary game plan involves deploying cheap evasive creatures (unblockable, flying, hexproof) to connect early, triggering Gonti's ability to exile the top card of each opponent's library. Additional theft effects-Thief of Sanity, Fallen Shinobi, Silent-Blade Oni, Nashi, Moon Sage's Scion, and Hostage Taker-compound the advantage, while cost reducers like Doc Aurlock, Grizzled Genius and Savvy Trader make it easier to cast stolen spells. The deck wins by overwhelming opponents with their own cards, finishing with Villainous Wealth, Heartless Conscription, or Mind's Dilation. It is a midrange value deck that thrives on incremental advantage and lacks fast combo lines.
