Deck overview

This is a general-power Mardu tribal deck built around Kaalia, Zenith Seeker for selection and Kaalia of the Vast for combat-based cost reduction. The normal plan is to develop mana, use Kaalia, Zenith Seeker to collect Angels, Demons, and Dragons, then give Kaalia of the Vast haste with Lightning Greaves. Dragon Tempest, All-Out Assault, and large evasive creatures convert attacks into pressure. Reanimation cards such as Reanimate, Victimize, Karmic Guide, and Whip of Erebos provide a second way to deploy expensive threats. The deck has strong individual cards and some explosive lines, including Saw in Half with Kokusho, the Evening Star, but those lines need additional pieces and do not form a reliable infinite combo. Its main weaknesses are high mana costs, combat dependence, limited protection, and the lack of a compact route that consistently eliminates all three opponents.
