Deck overview

This deck is a Sultai graveyard control and combo strategy commanded by Muldrotha, the Gravetide. The early turns focus on developing mana through land ramp and artifact fixers while filling the graveyard with self-mill and targeted burial spells. Once Muldrotha enters the battlefield on Turn 5, the deck establishes an asymmetric resource engine by replaying sacrificed utility permanents each turn. It locks out opposing aggression with repeatable Spore Frog fogs, strips boards with Plaguecrafter and Seal of Primordium, and draws dense card volume through Secrets of the Dead and Braids, Arisen Nightmare. The deck transitions into a game-ending win either by assembling an infinite mana loop with Deadeye Navigator and Peregrine Drake to fuel lethal Walking Ballista or Exsanguinate casts, or by crushing opponents under the recurring combat and life-drain triggers of Archon of Cruelty and Archfiend of Despair.
