Artifact (1)


This has become my main deck and is finally starting to earn some wins.

It's a Grixis control deck using disruption, counter spells and board sweeps like

Damnation

The deck uses

Keranos, God of Storms

And obviously

Cruel Ultimatum as finishers.

There isn't too much in here that requires a ton of explaining.

My intent is to grind out wins by taking out any early game plays and combo pieces with counter and kill spells.

I have elected to leave hand disruption in the side board.

1x Spell Snare

4x Remand too.

Lightning Bolt to the dome against other control decks. And 6-7 life matters a lot. That's enough to Cruel Ultimatum.

Snapcaster Mage comes back and brings anything back.
