Deck overview

This deck is a aggressive Mardu tokens and aristocrats build commanded by Vihaan, Goldwaker. The primary game plan revolves around rapidly generating Treasure tokens in the opening turns through low-cost value engines such as Lotho, Corrupt Shirriff, Black Market Connections, and Warren Soultrader. Once Vihaan enters the battlefield on Turn 4, all accumulated Treasures turn into 3/3 Construct Assassin artifact creatures at the beginning of combat. Because Vihaan grants outlaws vigilance and haste, these animated Treasures can immediately attack opposing life totals while still remaining untapped to produce mana in the second main phase. The deck converts this immense mana velocity into decisive finishes on Turns 5 and 6 using token drain engines like Mirkwood Bats and Marionette Master, high-impact mass burn spells like Crackle with Power, or alternative win conditions like Revel in Riches.
