Deck overview

This Sultai deck is an aggressive midrange engine built around The Wise Mothman, utilizing rad counters and continuous milling to power up a lethal army of modified creatures. The primary game plan ramps into Mothman on Turn 4, spreads rad counters to all players, and converts every milled nonland card into +1/+1 counters that quickly turn evasive flyers and mutants into massive threats. Supported by counter doublers like Branching Evolution and Corpsejack Menace, the deck establishes a must-answer combat clock by Turn 5 and closes games around Turn 7 through overwhelming combat damage and direct burn from Syr Konrad, the Grim. Built-in protection spells like Mutational Advantage and Ripples of Potential shield key threats against sweepers, while compact backup combos like Duskmantle Guildmage paired with Mindcrank and Painter's Servant with Grindstone offer alternate win conditions.
