Deck overview

This mono-white Equipment deck uses Ekthi, Contaminator Priest as an anthem and token multiplier. Ekthi gives other Phyrexians +1/+1 and gives every Equipment living weapon, so each Equipment that enters creates a 0/0 Germ and attaches. The primary plan is to go wide with Germs and Heroes, grow them with Cathars' Crusade, Anduril, Narsil Reforged and Elesh Norn effects, and win through combat. Secondary paths are compact combos that do not need Ekthi: Heliod, Sun-Crowned with Walking Ballista for infinite damage and life, and Basalt Monolith with Rings of Brighthearth for infinite mana into Ballista. Puresteel Paladin, Sram and Stoneforge Mystic act as hidden engines for draw and free equips.
