This is a Golgari self-mill and reanimation deck. Old Rutstein's upkeep mill turns every card into value: a Treasure for a land, a 1/1 Insect for a creature, a Blood token otherwise. Many other mill engines stock the graveyard to turn on delirium and feed reanimation of big threats, while the tokens double as fodder for a sacrifice-and-drain package. How it wins: It reanimates or mass-returns large creatures and token makers, then closes with combat from trampling, delirium-boosted or deathtouch bodies, backed by death and token drain triggers. Key roles: - Self-mill engines: Repeated and burst milling fills the graveyard, pairing with Old Rutstein's upkeep trigger to generate tokens and stock reanimation targets (Stitcher's Supplier, Nyx Weaver, Deadbridge Chant). - Delirium payoffs: A mixed graveyard of creatures, lands, artifacts, enchantments and spells powers up threats that recur themselves or pump the whole team (Demolisher Spawn, The Swarmweaver, Grim Flayer). - Reanimation: Single-target and mass returns cheat milled fatties like Hornet Queen and Moldgraf Monstrosity into play, and also re-trigger enter-the-battlefield edicts and token makers (Living Death, Animate Dead, Victimize). - Token multiplication: Insect, Spider and Servo makers, plus Old Rutstein's own tokens, get doubled into wide boards, and Insects and Spiders gain deathtouch and size under delirium (Chatterfang, Squirrel General, Hornet Queen, Grist, Voracious Larva). - Aristocrats drain: Tokens and edict creatures are sacrificed while death, token and graveyard-movement triggers drain opponents, and Syr Konrad also pings off creatures being milled or leaving the graveyard (Syr Konrad, the Grim, Zulaport Cutthroat, Mirkwood Bats).
