Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a Mardu reanimator deck helmed by Terra, Herald of Hope, built around milling cards into the graveyard and reanimating small creatures (power 3 or less) through Terra's combat-damage trigger. The deck pairs a dense self-mill package (Stitcher's Supplier, Millikin, Ark of Hunger, Siegfried, Famed Swordsman, Buried Alive) with an unusually deep recursion suite (Reanimate, Priest of Fell Rites, Karmic Guide, Sun Titan, Alesha, Who Laughs at Fate, Squall, SeeD Mercenary, General Leo Cristophe, Joshua, Phoenix's Dominant // Phoenix, Warden of Fire, Rise of the Dark Realms) to keep the board stocked. Primary win conditions are the Aurelia, the Warleader + Fear of Missing Out infinite-combat loop (with Anger granting haste from the graveyard) and Syr Konrad, the Grim's drain engine, which turns every mill and reanimation into table-wide damage. The deck grinds value through repeated reanimation, extra combats, and incidental drain, closing games through combat or combo once the pieces align.
