Deck overview

Wick, the Whorled Mind leads an aggressive typal swarm strategy built around twenty-three copies of Rat Colony. The primary game plan deploys relentless waves of scaling Rats to grow a massive Snail token via Wick. Once the battlefield is established, the deck transitions into direct burn and card draw by sacrificing the oversized Snail to Wick's activated ability. Alternatively, the deck overwhelms the table through massive combat attacks enhanced by haste and evasion enablers. A single cast of Thrumming Stone ripples through the library to deploy dozens of Rats at once, generating overwhelming board presence, massive enter-the-battlefield burn, and lethal direct damage.
