Deck overview
This deck is a Sultai graveyard midrange strategy commanded by Muldrotha, the Gravetide. It aims to turn the graveyard into an expansive second hand by combining steady self-mill, land ramp, and high-synergy permanent cards. During the early game, cheap enablers like Perpetual Timepiece, Ripples of Undeath, and Sakura-Tribe Elder set up the resource pool. Once Muldrotha enters the battlefield on Turn 5, the deck generates compounding card advantage by replaying lands, creatures, artifacts, and enchantments directly from the graveyard every turn. The deck secures the board using repeatable disruption like Spore Frog, Accursed Marauder, and Kaya's Ghostform. As the game progresses, it pivots to decisive win conditions by casting asymmetric powerhouses such as Portal to Phyrexia, Jin-Gitaxias, Progress Tyrant, or Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider, alongside evasive, counter-boosted combat damage enabled by Wonder and Kalonian Hydra. While vulnerable to dedicated graveyard exile, the deck possesses strong resilience and multiple independent backup engines.
