Overview:
A theft-based strategy deck led by Gonti, Canny Acquisitor, focusing on combat damage triggers to steal and cast opponents' cards while reducing their casting costs. The deck employs unblockable creatures and ninjas to consistently trigger these effects.
Primer:
The deck aims to establish early evasive creatures and gradually accumulate value by stealing opponents' cards through combat damage. Gonti, Canny Acquisitor reduces the cost of stolen spells, making them more efficient to cast. The strategy involves maintaining a board of hard-to-block creatures while using stolen resources to control the game. Key elements include unblockable creatures, ninjas with powerful combat damage triggers, and cost reduction effects. The deck can pivot between aggro and control depending on what cards are stolen from opponents.
Weaknesses:
The deck is heavily reliant on combat damage to function, making it vulnerable to fog effects, pillowfort strategies, and board wipes. The strategy can be inconsistent since it depends on opponents' deck quality and what cards are available to steal. The deck can struggle against aggressive strategies due to its relatively slow setup time.

Attribute Ratings:
- Speed: 4/10
- Resilience: 5/10
- Consistency: 6/10
- Interaction: 5/10
Rating Justification:
This deck operates at a focused casual level, with a clear strategy but requiring setup time and combat steps to execute its gameplan. While it includes some powerful effects and cost reduction, the reliance on combat damage and opponent's cards makes it slower than higher-powered decks. It performs better than precon-level decks due to its synergistic card choices and multiple ways to generate value, but would struggle against optimized decks that can win before it establishes its engine. The deck's interactive elements and ability to use opponents' resources give it flexibility, but its speed and consistency limitations keep it from reaching higher power levels.
Final power level rating: 5.0 - 5.5
