Deck overview

This deck is a mono-black discard and resource-denial strategy led by Tinybones, Bauble Burglar. The game plan focuses on emptying opponents' hands using symmetrical discard spells, creature enter-the-battlefield triggers, and continuous attrition engines. Tinybones, Bauble Burglar breaks the symmetry of these effects by exiling every discarded card with a stash counter, giving you a vast pool of opposing spells to cast on your own turns. Meanwhile, continuous damage sources like Shrieking Affliction, Megrim, Quest for the Nihil Stone, and Bandit's Talent punish opponents each turn for holding few or no cards. Oppression and repeatable discard effects keep hands empty, while black sweepers and edicts keep the battlefield clear of opposing threats. The deck closes games through steady rack damage, combat with Zombie tokens from Waste Not and Bone Miser, or powerful late-game engines like Bolas's Citadel. While vulnerable to early enchantment removal and fast combo decks, its crushing attrition overwhelms traditional creature and midrange strategies.
