Deck overview

This Grixis control/value deck is helmed by The Valeyard, a commander that doubles every "villainous choice" an opponent faces and grants an extra vote during council's dilemma. The primary game plan is to deploy the commander early, then chain choice and voting cards-Davros, Dalek Creator, Genesis of the Daleks, The Dalek Emperor, Expropriate, and Plea for Power-to generate overwhelming card advantage, board presence, and extra turns. The deck wins through combat with a growing army of Dalek and Cyberman tokens, often accelerated by Aggravated Assault for extra combats or by taking multiple turns with Expropriate. It is a midrange strategy that out-values opponents through repeated triggers and then closes with a decisive combat or extra-turn chain.
