Katilda and Lier
$0.40

Bant Humans deck that flashes back instants and sorceries from the graveyard every time it casts a Human, grinding value out of removal.
Read more
Whenever you cast a Human spell, Katilda and Lier give an instant or sorcery card in your graveyard flashback until end of turn. The flashback cost equals the card's normal mana cost. Each Human you cast lets you recast one used spell, like a removal spell, a counterspell or a draw spell. That makes cheap Humans valuable twice over. The deck mixes Bant Humans with efficient interaction, so the creatures pressure the board and the spells get used again.
In the recorded games, which were few, the deck chipped in with small Humans and wore opponents down over time instead of winning in one turn. Recasting removal through flashback kept the board under control for long stretches. Sevinne's Reclamation was a highlight, since it already has its own flashback and returns a permanent each time. Bounce effects and tutors helped find key pieces. There wasn't much in these games about how the deck closed out wins or what beat it, so treat it as a slow value deck that needs a full graveyard to work well.
