The deck mills cards from its own library each combat step to fuel the graveyard, then uses Terra's combat damage trigger to repeatedly pay two mana and reanimate creatures with power 3 or less directly onto the battlefield. The strategy revolves around building a wide board of small but impactful creatures through this recursive reanimation loop, leveraging the Mardu color identity to support aggressive combat, removal, and graveyard enablement. Flying granted to Terra each combat helps ensure she connects reliably, keeping the reanimation engine running while the accumulated board presence closes out the game.
