Deck overview

This Sultai tempo-aggro deck pairs Ukkima, Stalking Shadow and Cazur, Ruthless Stalker to convert cheap, unblockable attackers into an escalating combat clock and card-advantage engine. The early game focuses on deploying evasive creatures such as Slither Blade, Invisible Stalker, and Ukkima on curve. Once assembled, Cazur and saboteur effects like Reconnaissance Mission, Combat Research, and Enduring Curiosity ensure every unblocked swing draws cards and grows attackers with +1/+1 counters. Alternate win conditions like Raised by Giants, Genji Glove, and Vorpal Sword provide burst lethality to close games out, while theft effects like Gonti, Canny Acquisitor turn opposing decks into fuel. However, the deck relies heavily on sequential combat steps across multiple turn rotations to eliminate three opponents. Because its reactive disruption and board-wide protection suites are thin, the strategy is vulnerable to sweepers and requires careful management of threat deployment and mana.
