Deck overview

This Orzhov deck uses Ketramose, the New Dawn as a card-advantage engine that rewards you whenever cards are exiled from graveyards or the battlefield during your turn. The early game focuses on deploying low-cost ramp and exile permanents such as Planar Void, Lion Sash, and Ghost Vacuum to draw extra cards while rapidly building the seven exiled cards needed to make Ketramose an active 4/4 indestructible attacker. In the mid-game, the deck leverages flicker creatures like Phelia, Exuberant Shepherd, Felidar Guardian, and Preston, the Vanisher to control opposing threats and generate enter-the-battlefield value. The primary route to victory is resolving Bolas's Citadel to churn through the library using life as mana, finding Sensei's Divining Top and Aetherflux Reservoir to generate unbounded life and laser each opponent for 50 damage on the spot.
