Deck overview

This is a classic Nekusar, the Mindrazer wheel-burn deck that weaponizes the table's card draw. The core plan is to force every opponent to draw extra cards - through Nekusar's own draw-step trigger, symmetrical engines like Howling Mine and Font of Mythos, and a dense wheel package - then punish each draw with damage from Underworld Dreams, Spiteful Visions, Sheoldred, the Apocalypse, and damage-multipliers like Ghyrson Starn, Kelermorph and Ojer Axonil, Deepest Might. The primary win is cumulative: repeated wheels plus a Peer into the Abyss finisher. Backup lines include an Aetherflux Reservoir + Bolas's Citadel + Sensei's Divining Top storm kill, a Laboratory Maniac self-mill, and Time Warp + Kess, Dissident Mage extra-turn loops. The deck is a group-hug turned arms race, racing the table's life totals against the cards it hands out.
