Deck overview

This Sultai deck is an evasive combat saboteur strategy helmed by Gonti, Canny Acquisitor. It aims to deploy low-cost, unblockable creatures on early turns to reliably trigger Gonti's ability upon entering the battlefield. By exiling cards from each damaged opponent's library and casting them at a discounted rate, the deck rapidly out-values the table using opponents' own resources. Complementary saboteur engines like Edric, Spymaster of Trest, Enduring Curiosity, and Grim Hireling ensure a steady stream of card draw and Treasure tokens. High-impact payoffs such as Felix Five-Boots double every combat trigger, while Brainstealer Dragon converts stolen spells into direct life loss across all opponents. A robust suite of Sultai interaction including Assassin's Trophy, Counterspell, and Tear Asunder protects the board and halts opposing win attempts. The deck wins by grinding out opponents through massive card advantage, wide evasive swings, and catastrophic stolen threats.
