Deck overview

This is a Sultai combat-theft deck helmed by Gonti, Canny Acquisitor. The plan is to deploy a swarm of evasive Rogues, Ninjas, and value attackers, connect in combat, and exile the top of opponents' libraries face-down so the deck can cast those stolen spells at a discount. Gonti is the command-zone engine that both reduces the cost of stolen cards and repeatedly mills value off every successful swing. The 99 backs him with redundant "hit and exile" bodies (Thief of Sanity, Fallen Shinobi, Silent-Blade Oni, Nashi, Moon Sage's Scion), combat-draw engines (Edric, Spymaster of Trest, Toski, Bearer of Secrets, Ohran Frostfang, Bident of Thassa), and double-trigger payoffs like Felix Five-Boots. There are no infinite combos; wins come from snowballing stolen resources into lethal combat, big X-spells like Villainous Wealth, or one-sided mass theft via Heartless Conscription.
