“With Friends Like These...” is a XLN-WAR standard deck that curves impactful Grixis spells into midgame utility walkers, with a handful of powerful finishers. Half control deck and half Superfriends, the goal is to build up a cadre of utility walkers and then windmill slam Sarkhan the Masterless for an Alpha swing. If that fails, you can always use one of the various Nicky-B cards ( Nicol Bolas, Dragon-God or Nicol Bolas, the Ravager  ) to grind your opponent out, or turn traitor with Liliana, Dreadhorde General . This deck is featured on Season 2, Episode 1 of the Clever Combo podcast. Tune in for a lively discussion on the merits of Sarkhan making everyone into flying Gideons.
