Deck overview

This deck leverages Victor, Valgavoth's Seneschal to blend Orzhov enchantment synergies with graveyard reanimation. By deploying cost reducers alongside self-bouncing Auras like Flickering Ward and Conviction, the deck repeatedly activates Victor's Eerie ability. The first trigger sculpts draws via surveil, the second strips opposing resources through asymmetric discard, and the third cheats massive threats like Valgavoth, Terror Eater directly onto the battlefield. Token generators such as Archon of Sun's Grace and Ghostly Dancers provide flying board presence, which is converted into a lethal clock with Dollmaker's Shop // Porcelain Gallery or All That Glitters. Defensive enchantments including Sphere of Safety and Ghostly Prison tax incoming attacks, giving the deck the necessary time to amass overwhelming board parity. If disrupted, powerful recovery cards like Replenish ensure swift reconstruction, enabling reliable mid-game victories through combat and sustained resource attrition.
