Deck overview

This is a Mardu graveyard-reanimator deck helmed by Terra, Herald of Hope. Terra's trance mills two cards at the start of combat, grants flying, and on combat damage reanimates a power-3-or-less creature for {2}. The deck is a self-mill value engine: Stitcher's Supplier, Millikin, Ripples of Undeath, and Siegfried, Famed Swordsman fill the graveyard, which a deep reanimation package - Reanimate, Unearth, Victimize, Karmic Guide, Sun Titan, Serra Paragon, both Aleshas, Squall, SeeD Mercenary, and Afterlife from the Loam - converts into a relentless board. Wins come from combat, amplified by extra-combat pieces Aurelia, the Warleader, Raph & Leo, Sibling Rivals, and Fear of Missing Out, plus incidental drain from Syr Konrad, the Grim, Gau, Feral Youth, and Gray Merchant of Asphodel. The deck grinds value, rebuilds through wipes, and closes with overwhelming board presence.
