Deck overview

This deck is a high-speed Jeskai artifact and infect engine commanded by Kilo, Apogee Mind. It accelerates out early mana artifacts and lands to establish early poison counters on every opponent simultaneously via cards like Prologue to Phyresis, Skrelv, Defector Mite, or Blighted Agent. Once opponents are seeded with poison, Kilo uses its natural haste and attack/station triggers to proliferate counters every turn. The deck magnifies this progression using counter-doublers and artifact triggers like Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus, Surge Conductor, and Throne of Geth, scaling poison from minor chip counts to lethal thresholds of 10 across the entire table by Turn 5. A dense suite of free counterspells and targeted removal shields the engine while The One Ring and Insight Engine generate immense card advantage. The deck also carries an infinite mana backup combo with Basalt Monolith and Power Artifact and infinite turns via Magistrate's Scepter.
