Overview:
A high-powered Umbris, Fear Manifest deck focusing on aggressive mill and exile strategies, leveraging fast mana and efficient interaction to quickly grow the commander while disrupting opponents.
Primer:
This deck aims to establish early board presence through fast mana artifacts and efficient creatures while using its commander Umbris, Fear Manifest as both a growing threat and mill engine. The strategy revolves around exiling cards from opponents' libraries and graveyards to pump Umbris while maintaining control through counterspells and removal.
The deck features multiple layers of interaction and card advantage engines, including powerful draw effects like Rhystic Study and Necropotence, while utilizing efficient tutors and fast mana to accelerate its gameplan. The secondary win condition involves mill damage through cards like Phenax, God of Deception and Consuming Aberration, creating a two-pronged attack that forces opponents to deal with both commander damage and mill threats.
Weaknesses:
The deck is somewhat vulnerable to graveyard hate and exile removal, which can disrupt its commander-centric strategy. It can struggle against aggressive decks that go wide, as the removal suite is more focused on single-target elimination. The strategy is also relatively mana-intensive, making it susceptible to resource denial strategies.

Attribute Ratings:
- Speed: 8/10
- Resilience: 7/10
- Consistency: 8/10
- Interaction: 7/10
Rating Justification:
This deck demonstrates significant optimization with its fast mana package, efficient interaction, and strong synergies. It can consistently threaten wins around turns 4-5 through commander damage or mill strategies, while maintaining protection through counterspells and removal. While not quite reaching the highest competitive levels, it's clearly above focused competitive decks but just below top-tier cEDH builds. The presence of multiple tutors, fast mana, and efficient interaction puts it solidly in the high-power category.
Final power level rating: 7.8 - 8.3
