Minthara Flick the Arts by Finkstein

Format: Commander

Commander: Minthara, Merciless Soul

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Orzhov deck is a blink and aristocrats deck built around Minthara, Merciless Soul. You flicker your own permanents with Teleportation Circle, Conjurer's Closet, Felidar Guardian and Icewind Stalwart to trigger Minthara's experience counter each turn and grow your board with +1/+0 per counter. Hidden Stockpile, Daxos the Returned and token makers supply sacrifice fodder while Elas il-Kor, Corpse Knight and The Meathook Massacre drain opponents on every enter and death. Minthara acts as anthem and ward protection, not the main engine. A hidden engine is the repeatable blink package plus the drain package, which can win without Minthara through incremental value, reanimation with Portal to Phyrexia and Ascend from Avernus, or an infinite blink loop.
