Deck overview

This is a Mono-White Equipment Voltron deck helmed by Ekthi, Contaminator Priest. The commander grants living weapon to all Equipment, creating a 0/0 Phyrexian Germ token for each Equipment that enters and attaching it automatically. This turns every Equipment into a creature generator, letting you build a wide board of Phyrexians while also suiting up a voltron threat. The primary win condition is commander damage through Ekthi or the hidden commander Cloud, Midgar Mercenary, using big Equipment like Colossus Hammer, Excalibur, Sword of Eden, or Aettir and Priwen. Secondary wins come from going wide with Phyrexian tokens buffed by Intangible Virtue and Ekthi's own +1/+1 anthem. The deck runs a dense tutor suite for Equipment and a handful of draw engines (Sram, Senior Edificer, Puresteel Paladin, Esper Sentinel) to keep the gas flowing.
