Deck overview

This Orzhov deck leverages Burakos, Party Leader and Folk Hero to create a relentless party-based midrange engine. In the opening turns, the deck deploys cheap Clerics, Rogues, Warriors, and Wizards to establish a diverse party. Once Burakos enters and attacks on Turn 4, the engine generates up to four Treasure tokens and drains opponents while Folk Hero replenishes your hand with every party creature cast. The massive mana surplus from Treasures accelerates high-impact finishers like Mirror Entity, Akroma's Will, and Nalia de'Arnise to overwhelm the table through combat. The deck backs up this proactive plan with elite defensive tools, including Teferi's Protection, Flawless Maneuver, Grand Abolisher, and Galadriel's Dismissal, alongside efficient exile removal like Deadly Rollick and Swords to Plowshares. Even if the board faces disruption, mass recursion and low-cost party members ensure rapid rebuilding.
