Deck overview

This Esper deck leverages The Ur-Sphinx in the command zone to discount expensive Sphinx creatures via Eminence. It establishes early mana velocity through low-cost artifact ramp and cost reducers like Urza's Incubator and Herald's Horn. By Turn 4, the deck deploys potent card advantage engines such as Unesh, Criosphinx Sovereign or Consecrated Sphinx, rapidly digging through the library. In the midgame, it transitions into a formidable aerial offense featuring devastating bombs like Magister Sphinx, Tivit, Seller of Secrets, and Medomai the Ageless. If opponents wipe the board, the deck rebounds instantly using mass reanimation spells like Living Death, Patriarch's Bidding, and Haunting Voyage to resurrect an entire flock of flying beaters. Strong reactive removal and countermagic protect the game plan while dismantling opposing strategies.
