Strategy
Edea, Possessed Sorceress is all about commandeering your opponents' creatures and turning them against each other while drawing cards in the process. Each turn, you steal a creature, swing with it, and when it inevitably dies (either in combat or you sacrifice it), you get a free card draw and it goes back to its owner. This creates a fantastic value engine that punishes opponents for playing good threats while filling your hand.
The deck wants to maximize the death trigger by running sacrifice outlets and effects that force combat or creature death. You're essentially playing a theft and sacrifice shell in Izzet-Grixis colors, using cards that benefit from temporary control effects or that synergize with creatures entering and leaving the battlefield. The real beauty is that you're not committing your own resources to the board—you're leveraging theirs, drawing cards, and staying ahead on value.
