Strategy
Tinybones is a sneaky little threat that turns combat damage into theft opportunities. Your game plan is to get Tinybones through to deal damage—easier than you'd think thanks to deathtouch and evasion—then steal and cast your opponents' best spells from their graveyards. You're essentially getting a free tutor every time you hit, letting you play everyone else's good stuff while they're stuck without it.
The deck leans into evasion, ways to pump Tinybones, and cards that fill opponent graveyards (like discard effects and mill). You want to be aggressive early, sneak in damage, then leverage the stolen cards to take over the game. It's tempo-focused but with a fun political angle—nobody's happy when you're casting their own Mulldrifter or Plague Rat. You win through a combination of commander damage, stolen permanents, and the card advantage of playing for free.

Key Synergies
Budget Build
Use cheaper evasion like Tainted Strike and Mask of Ridley instead of pricey alternatives; swap premium tutors for basic mill like Stitcher's Supplier and Satyr Wayfinder.
