Tazri, Stalwart Survivor

Tazri is a five-color mana engine that rewards you for playing creatures with activated abilities. Your game plan is to build a board of utility creatures, then tap them not just for mana, but to generate value through their own abilities. The deck wants to accumulate creatures with repeatable effects—think card draw, tutoring, ramp, or damage triggers—and use Tazri to fuel those abilities while also milling as a secondary engine.

The mill ability is your secret weapon. Every few turns, you mill five and tutor creature cards with activated abilities directly into your hand, essentially drawing cards while filtering your deck. This turns Tazri into a value engine that grows stronger as the game goes on. You win by grinding out card advantage, deploying threats faster than opponents can handle, and eventually dealing combat damage or establishing an untap combo with creatures that generate loops. The five-color identity lets you include the best utility creatures from across Magic's color pie.
