Deck overview

This is a general Zur the Enchanter enchantment toolbox deck. Its strongest coherent line is to cast Zur the Enchanter on turn 4, attack on turn 5 for Steel of the Godhead, then find Phyresis on a later attack. The resulting unblockable 3-power infect attacker creates a real must-answer state on turn 6. However, the deck can attack only one opponent per turn, so the poison plan needs four attacks per opponent and finishes around turn 17 without interruption. The deck has useful defensive and disruptive enchantments, including Rule of Law, Out of Time, Grasp of Fate, and Solitary Confinement, but these effects are not assembled into a reliable asymmetric lock. Its mana is mostly on curve, card flow is modest, and protection is partial. The commander supplies excellent access to low-cost enchantments, but the plan remains vulnerable during setup and has no compact infinite combo or table-wide finisher.
