Sefris of the Hidden Ways
$0.60
Legendary Creature — Human Wizard

Esper dungeon reanimator that ventures whenever creature cards hit the graveyard, then brings its best creature back each time a dungeon ends.

Whenever one or more creature cards go into your graveyard from anywhere, Sefris ventures into the dungeon, once per turn. That counts discards, mill and creatures dying. Each completed dungeon returns a creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield. Short dungeons like Tomb of Annihilation finish fast, while longer ones give more value per room. The deck mixes looters, self-mill and sacrifice outlets with strong creatures worth reanimating.
In the recorded games, Sefris played as a slow, grindy deck that gained value every turn. Early looters and card draw kept the ventures going, and Sun Titan and Overlord of the Balemurk added more recursion on top of dungeon rewards. Danse Macabre and Grave Endeavor helped return several creatures after a wipe. Because the trigger only happens once per turn, Sefris needed time, and faster decks set the pace. Graveyard exile hurt the most, since it shut off both the reanimation and the payoff from completing dungeons.
