Anikthea, Hand of Erebos

Anikthea wants you to build a graveyard-focused enchantment deck where you're constantly filling your graveyard with non-Aura enchantments, then reanimating them as 3/3 Zombie tokens. Every time Anikthea enters or attacks, you're essentially getting a free copy of a powerful enchantment effect while building a menacing board presence. This gives you a unique angle: you're not just playing enchantments normally—you're stocking the graveyard as fuel for explosive turns where one attack swing creates multiple tokens.

The deck thrives on cards that fuel the graveyard (self-mill, discard outlets, cycling), cheap efficient enchantments that are powerful on the board (like Flare of Cultivation or Doomwake Giant), and ways to protect Anikthea so she keeps attacking. Since each attack triggers her ability, you're looking at a tempo-focused midrange strategy that snowballs. Cards that bin enchantments for value, tutors to find key pieces, and a bit of card draw keep the engine running. You win through menacing beats, token swarm, and board control via enchantment effects.

The beauty of Anikthea is flexibility: she's not asking for a narrow tribal or combo setup, just good enchantment synergies and a way to keep her swinging. Pair her with creatures that share menace, protection spells, and a touch of ramp to hit her consistently.
