Deck overview

This deck is an aggressive Orzhov Party midrange engine commanded by Nalia de'Arnise. It leverages dense functional redundancy across Clerics, Rogues, Warriors, Wizards, and Changelings to assemble a full party by Turn 4. Once assembled, Nalia provides continuous card advantage by letting you cast party creatures directly from the top of your library while buffing your team with +1/+1 counters and deathtouch on every combat. The deck accelerates into combat payoffs like Burakos, Party Leader and Grim Hireling to generate surplus Treasures, while engines like Tymna the Weaver and Harper Recruiter maintain full hands. Lethal combat finishes are closed out around Turn 7 via high-impact overrun effects such as Akroma's Will, True Conviction, or an activated Mirror Entity. Protection staples like Grand Abolisher, Flawless Maneuver, and Selfless Spirit defend the wide board against wipes, while cards like Stick Together provide devastating asymmetric removal against opposing boards.
