Deck overview

This deck is a mono-black artifact aristocrats engine commanded by Imotekh the Stormlord. It focuses on looping artifact creature cards between the battlefield and the graveyard to generate massive token swarms, infinite mana, and lethal life drain. The deck relies on dense fast mana, efficient rituals, and top-tier black tutors to assemble core engines by Turn 4. Its primary win condition leverages sacrifice outlets like Ashnod's Altar or Krark-Clan Ironworks alongside recursion pairs such as Myr Retriever and Junk Diver. Each loop triggers Imotekh to produce 2/2 Necron Warrior tokens, which fuel further sacrifices and power life-drain payoffs like Marionette Apprentice, Mirkwood Bats, and Disciple of the Vault. While the deck possesses high engine redundancy and swift combo finishes, it runs minimal reactive interaction and remains vulnerable to targeted graveyard hate or well-timed creature removal.
