A Mono-Black midrange grind deck led by Gollum, Riddle Master. This deck runs best by curving into the engine, deploying your board quickly, making connections to trigger drain, and a devotion-based close with opportunities to rebuild. With maintaining room for upgrades like traditional precons, this deck serves as an entry point into Black with classic mechanics such as a light reanimate package, recycling trades, spot-removal, and old-school swampwalking beaters. Intentionally built without infinite combos to encourage deckbuilding and exploratory creativity, this precon is a good starting point for new players.
