Deck overview

This deck leverages Nissa, Leyline Tamer at the head of a non-green four-color shell ({W}{U}{B}{R}). The main strategy uses a dense package of two-mana Signets and Talismans to ramp into Nissa ahead of curve. Once Nissa enters, every land drop draws a card and puts a free creature directly from the library onto the battlefield. This engine cheats heavy threats such as Tamiyo, Upriser Crowned, Ob Nixilis, the Ascended, and Kiora of Fire and Ashes into play without paying their mana costs. Backing up this creature engine is a flexible control package of three-color Charms, uncounterable removal like Void Rend, and high-impact planeswalkers. A unique enchantment cycle empowers Jace planeswalker tokens to provide utility and token generation. The deck closes games by overwhelming the table with combat damage while using board wipes to clear away opposing defenses.
