Deck overview

This deck is a mono-black artifact midrange and reanimation strategy built around Necron tribal synergies. Led by Szarekh, the Silent King, the deck aims to stock the graveyard through combat mill triggers, cheap utility creatures, and targeted setup cards like Buried Alive. Once key artifact creatures and vehicles are in the graveyard, the deck leverages efficient reanimation spells such as Victimize, Dread Return, and Living Death to deploy high-impact threats well ahead of their printed mana costs. Token generators like Imotekh the Stormlord and Biotransference generate wide board states of 2/2 Necron Warriors, while Skorpekh Lord and Cranial Plating grant evasive combat power. Life-drain triggers from Marionette Master and Psychomancer convert artifact attrition into direct opponent life loss. While the deck boasts resilient recursive lines, it lacks stack interaction and instant-speed noncreature removal, requiring careful timing to overwhelm opponents before opposing combo strategies assemble.
