Deck overview

This Sultai deck is led by The Wise Mothman and revolves around spreading radiation counters to every player at the table. Radiation forces players to mill cards during their pre-combat main phase, taking life loss for nonland cards milled and subsequently triggering Mothman's ability to distribute +1/+1 counters among your creatures. The deck amplifies these counters using multipliers like Hardened Scales, Branching Evolution, and Corpsejack Menace, while proliferating radiation and counters with cards like Radstorm and Agent Frank Horrigan. Victory is achieved through a combination of lethal combat damage from massive evasive mutants and cumulative life loss from radiation burn. While resilient in creature combat and equipped with recursive graveyard options like Muldrotha, the Gravetide, the deck relies heavily on keeping creatures on board and operates at a traditional midrange pace.
