Raffine, Scheming Seer drives the deck by triggering connive whenever you attack, letting you filter your hand and stack +1/+1 counters on your most threatening creatures while simultaneously filling the graveyard with high-value targets. The deck leverages this discard engine to fuel an extensive reanimation package, cheating powerful creatures like Archon of Cruelty back onto the battlefield repeatedly through enchantment-based recursion, sacrifice outlets, and end-step triggers. The deck wins by overwhelming opponents through a combination of massive counter-laden attackers, drain effects, and a steady stream of reanimated threats that generate value and board presence faster than opponents can answer them.
