Deck overview

This deck is an Azorius Spirit tribal and token swarm deck commanded by Millicent, Restless Revenant. The primary strategy curves out with low-cost, evasive Spirits on turns 1 through 3 to exploit Millicent's affinity for Spirits. Deploying Millicent on turn 4 allows early attacks to immediately generate 1/1 flying Spirit tokens whenever nontoken Spirits deal combat damage or die. The deck converts this flying army into a lethal clock on turn 5 using powerful anthem effects, +1/+1 counter engines like Cathars' Crusade, and one-sided board clearing spells like Raise the Palisade. It maintains card velocity through combat damage draw engines such as Bident of Thassa and Kindred Discovery. A deep defensive package featuring Selfless Spirit, Guardian of Faith, and Teferi's Protection preserves the board against sweepers. The deck steadily eliminates opponents through evasive aerial combat across turns 5 to 7.
