Deck overview

This Azorius lifegain-mill deck helmed by Hope Estheim converts life totals into library destruction. Hope's end-step trigger mills each opponent for the life gained that turn, amplified by doublers like Bruvac the Grandiloquent, The Water Crystal, and trigger copiers. Parallel engines (Psychic Corrosion, Sphinx's Tutelage, Teferi's Tutelage) mill off every draw, while pillowfort (Propaganda, Ghostly Prison) and hate (Grafdigger's Cage, Weathered Runestone) buy time. Alternate finishes include Aetherflux Reservoir laser shots once life is inflated, Approach of the Second Sun, and kicked Maddening Cacophony under Bruvac. The commander is cheap and recursive but not mandatory-the 99 contains independent mill, burn, and Approach lines. The deck plays a grindy control-mill game that locks the board then empties libraries.
