Deck overview

This deck is a high-risk, high-reward combo/burn deck centered on Rowan, Scion of War. By aggressively turning life total into a resource through cards like Wall of Blood, Greed, Necropotence, and self-damaging spells, the deck reduces the cost of its black and red spells to near zero. Once Rowan taps, the deck channels this massive cost reduction into lethal game-ending spells such as Exsanguinate, Jaya's Immolating Inferno, or deep draw engines like Stargaze and Vilis, Broker of Blood to draw the library and burn the table out in a single explosive turn.
