Deck overview

Sauron, the Dark Lord leads a Grixis draw-and-combo deck that weaponizes card draw through Sheoldred, Orcish Bowmasters and Psychosis Crawler, while Sauron's ring-tempt discard-and-draw-four refuels the hand after a single attack. The primary plan is to assemble Bolas's Citadel plus Sensei's Divining Top plus Sheoldred to draw the library, then close with Thassa's Oracle. Secondary plans: Peer into the Abyss with Orcish Bowmasters/Sheoldred to kill one opponent rapidly, and a Wraith-tribal beatdown axis via Nazgul, Lord of the Nazgul, and Sauron-triggered amass. Tutors find the pieces, and Necropotence/Ad Nauseam provide massive draw depth. Combat damage, especially Lord of the Nazgul's 9/9 Wraiths, is a real backup.
