Deck overview

This Orzhov deck combines Aura Voltron offense with enchantress card flow and goad control, piloted by Killian, Decisive Mentor. Killian generates immediate board disruption by tapping and goading opposing creatures whenever an enchantment enters, while providing steady card advantage whenever enchanted creatures attack. The deck rapidly builds an imposing attacker using high-scaling Auras such as All That Glitters, Ethereal Armor, and Sheltered by Ghosts, backed by autonomous tutors like Light-Paws, Emperor's Voice. Defensively, Ghostly Prison, Eriette of the Charmed Apple, and the Impetus Aura suite divert combat steps toward opponents, buying time to eliminate players sequentially with commander damage. While the strategy lacks stack interaction against instant-speed non-combat combos and remains vulnerable to non-destroy board wipes like Farewell, its dense ramp, redundant tutors, and recursion pieces such as Mantle of the Ancients provide a resilient and aggressive clock.
