Deck overview

This is an Orzhov Aura/enchantment deck helmed by Killian, Decisive Mentor, built around a simple loop: cast enchantments, trigger constellation and enchantress draw, and use Killian's tap-and-goad ability to turn opponents' creatures against each other. The primary win conditions are **Eriette of the Charmed Apple**'s end-step drain (scaling with the number of Auras you control), a Voltron kill from **Killian, Ink Duelist** or **Light-Paws, Emperor's Voice** suited up with pump Auras, and a flying token swarm from **Sigil of the Empty Throne** and **Archon of Sun's Grace**. **Eiganjo Dynastorian // Replenish** and **Mantle of the Ancients** provide mass recursion to rebuild after wipes. The hidden commander is **Killian, Ink Duelist**, whose cost reduction makes Aura spells explosive.
