Deck overview

This mono-black deck blends Rat tribal aggression, graveyard reanimation, and lethal drain combos under the leadership of Ink-Eyes, Servant of Oni. Ink-Eyes leverages evasive creatures like Changeling Outcast and Dauthi Trapper to bypass defenses via ninjutsu, stealing prime creatures from opposing graveyards while applying steady pressure. Meanwhile, the deck builds broad board states with rat generators like Marrow-Gnawer and Lord Skitter, Sewer King. Decisive victories occur through burst combos such as Ayara, First of Locthwain paired with Plague of Vermin to drain the table, or by milling opponents out entirely with Doomsday Excruciator and Breach the Multiverse.
