Deck overview

Millicent, Restless Revenant commands an Azorius Spirit tribal deck focused on evasive swarm combat, anthem-backed damage, and resilient tempo interaction. The early game establishes a curve of cheap flying Spirits like Mausoleum Wanderer and Lantern Bearer, which reduce Millicent's casting cost through affinity. Once deployed, Millicent triggers whenever nontoken Spirits deal combat damage or die, generating a self-replenishing army of flying tokens. Static anthems such as Supreme Phantom, Empyrean Eagle, and Favorable Winds scale this army into a lethal airborne threat. The deck protects its board through in-tribe defensive tools like Selfless Spirit, Drogskol Captain, and Guardian of Faith, while disrupting opposing threats using flexible spot removal and tap effects from Nebelgast Herald and Shacklegeist. Although the deck lacks non-combat win conditions, its high functional redundancy, evasive aggression, and resilient tribal protection enable it to consistently overwhelm opposing life totals over several coordinated attack phases.
