Deck overview

This is a mono-black discard-control deck helmed by Tinybones, Trinket Thief, built to strip opponents' hands with a dense suite of ETB, upkeep, and sorcery-speed discard, then convert every discarded card into damage and value. The primary engine pairs discard enablers with payoffs like Megrim, Liliana's Caress, Waste Not, and Geth's Grimoire, while Tinybones, Trinket Thief himself draws a card per opponent discard and offers the cleanest finisher: a {4}{B}{B} activation that deals 10 life to each empty-handed opponent. Secondary lines include the empty-hand drain of Shrieking Affliction and Quest for the Nihil Stone, the Syr Konrad, the Grim + Mindcrank mill-damage loop, and The Haunt of Hightower as a growing evasive beater. The deck is a slow, grindy inevitability machine that wins by exhausting resources rather than racing.
