Deck overview

This deck is an Abzan midrange engine commanded by Tayam, Luminous Enigma. It weaves together +1/+1 counter manipulation, graveyard recursion, and aristocrats token generation. Tayam distributes vigilance counters to entering creatures and converts any three counters plus three mana into repeated self-mill and reanimation of permanents with mana value 3 or less. This engine continuously recurs key utility creatures like Selfless Spirit, Blood Artist, and Winding Constrictor. The deck grinds out card advantage while establishing an airborne army of Spirit and Inkling tokens through Felisa, Fang of Silverquill and Thalisse, Reverent Medium. Additionally, the deck contains an infinite loop between Basking Broodscale and Ghost Lantern, creating infinite colorless mana, infinite counters, and infinite death triggers. Solid defensive pieces like Guardian of Faith and Silkguard shield the board against board wipes, allowing the deck to close games via evasive combat damage and drain.
