Deck overview

This deck uses Sharae of Numbing Depths to turn tapped opposing creatures into cards, then reuses her enter-the-battlefield trigger with blink effects. Teleportation Circle, Conjurer's Closet, Thassa, Deep-Dwelling, and Soulherder provide the strongest repeatable engines. The tap package includes Authority of the Consuls, Solitary Sanctuary, Lost in the Maze, Floodpits Drowner, and Tempest Caller. Hylda of the Icy Crown, Verity Circle, and Rhoda, Geist Avenger convert tapping into tokens, cards, or creature growth. Removal and counters support a controlling posture, while Farewell and Supreme Verdict reset dangerous boards. The main limitation is strategic: the deck builds incremental advantage but does not convert that advantage into a deterministic kill or total lock. Its ordinary operating point is around turn 6, and its engine is vulnerable to losing either the commander or the blink permanent.
