Deck overview

This is a Dimir control/aristocrats deck built around Toxrill, the Corrosive, leveraging -1/-1 counters, proliferate, and death-trigger drain effects to grind out victory. The core strategy is to deploy Toxrill as a persistent board shrink, creating Slug tokens that fuel card draw, while proliferate accelerates counter placement. Simultaneously, Nest of Scarabs and Crumbling Ashes convert -1/-1 counters into token generation and removal. The deck wins through incremental life loss via Syr Konrad, the Grim, Blood Artist, Mirkwood Bats, or a massive Massacre Wurm/Bolas's Citadel finish. It lacks fast combos, relying on value accumulation and resilience.
