Deck overview

This Sultai deck is led by The Wise Mothman, executing an aggressive +1/+1 counter and mill attrition strategy powered by Fallout rad counter mechanics. On early turns, the deck accelerates mana to cast Mothman on turn 3 or 4. Once on the battlefield, Mothman infects all players with rad counters, causing them to mill cards and lose life on their precombat main phases. Each nonland card milled triggers Mothman to distribute +1/+1 counters across your board, rapidly inflating your commander and secondary mutant threats. Counter doublers like Branching Evolution and Corpsejack Menace supercharge this growth, turning Mothman into a lethal flying threat by turn 5. Meanwhile, graveyard recursion engines like Muldrotha, the Gravetide and The Master, Transcendent turn milled resources into card advantage. The deck closes the game around turn 8 through massive evasive commander damage, token swarms, and passive radiation attrition.
