Revenge Plot
If you seek revenge, don’t dig two graves. If you seek revenge, dig up two graves! It’s much faster.
Revenge Plot is a White/Black/Red reanimation deck that uses the graveyard as the ultimate toolbox. Unbury your dead to bury your foes with a slew of “enters the battlefield” effects!
A White-Black-Red control deck that uses removal, and card advantage to answer every threat, grinding down opponents before deploying powerful finishers.
Prioritize hitting land drops and hold up interaction. Answer the most threatening plays rather than developing proactively.
Mid Game
Turns 3-4
Start transitioning from pure reaction to building card advantage. Identify your path to a win condition while keeping answers open.
Late Game
Turn 5+
Deploy Dark Hatchling and Goremand when the opponent's resources are exhausted. Keep interaction mana open even when winning — never tap out unnecessarily.
Deck Play Profile
Derived from automated card-by-card analysis across all known versions. The Capability Profile shows how the deck measures up across six functional dimensions — pressure, interaction, card advantage, and more. The Play Style hexagon uses the same data to place the deck on the aggro–control–combo–midrange spectrum.
