Deck overview

This Boros Midrange deck is commanded by Zidane, Tantalus Thief, capitalizing on temporary creature theft, political donation, and explosive Treasure generation. The game plan focuses on deploying early ramp and 'hot potato' permanents such as Humble Defector, Yes Man, Personal Securitron, and Akroan Horse. Once Zidane enters the battlefield, handing control of these permanents to opponents triggers a steady flow of Treasure tokens alongside substantial card draw. The deck also utilizes blink effects like Cloudshift and Conjurer's Closet to permanently retain stolen opposing threats or re-trigger Zidane's enter-the-battlefield ability. Winning lines rely on converting massive Treasure mana into sweeping theft spells such as Mob Rule and Insurrection, sacrificing stolen boards to Goblin Bombardment or Altar of Dementia, or letting Alexios, Deimos of Kosmos run rampant across the table.
