Deck overview

This deck is a Grixis Spellslinger build commanded by Saruman, the White Hand. The primary strategy converts noncreature spell casts into a rapidly growing Orc Army token while triggering burn payoffs. Saruman's built-in Ward {2} protects your growing army from cheap targeted interaction, allowing you to pressure opponents with unblockable combat damage via Whispersilk Cloak, Trailblazer's Boots, and The Black Gate. Complementing the tall combat plan, cards like All Will Be One, Fiery Inscription, Guttersnipe, and Chandra's Ignition turn your spell velocity and counter generation into heavy table-wide burn. The deck runs a flexible removal package featuring Flame of Anor, Withering Torment, and Terminate to disrupt opposing engines while developing its own board.
