Deck overview

This Jund deck is an engine-driven midrange combo deck built around -1/-1 counters, wither, and creature attrition. Led by The Reaper, King No More, the deck converts counter placement into board dominance by generating vast token armies with Hapatra, Vizier of Poisons and Nest of Scarabs, drawing cards via Generous Patron and Yawgmoth, Thran Physician, and stealing opposing creatures. The deck locks creature-centric strategies out of combat with Kulrath Knight and Maha, Its Feathers Night. It closes games through an instant-speed infinite loop using Blowfly Infestation paired with a token generator and a drain outlet such as Obelisk Spider or All Will Be One, eliminating all opponents in a single burst on Turn 5.
