Deck overview

This deck is a Sultai +1/+1 counters and mill strategy led by The Wise Mothman. The primary game plan revolves around spreading rad counters to every player at the table, causing opponents to mill cards and lose life during their precombat main phases. Whenever nonland cards are milled, the commander distributes +1/+1 counters across your creature base. Counter doublers such as Branching Evolution and Corpsejack Menace, combined with extensive proliferate triggers from cards like Contagion Engine, Inexorable Tide, and Radstorm, accelerate this growth rapidly. The deck wins by attacking with large, evasive Mutants and finishing off opponents weakened by radiation attrition. While the deck generates high creature stats and steady card flow, it lacks countermagic and dedicated protection spells, making it vulnerable to well-timed board wipes.
