What does your table do when the Engine starts?

Tyrant’s Engine is my optimized Korvold, Fae-Cursed King deck built for blood-fueled value, recursive combos, and ruthless inevitability. Tuned for high-velocity synergy and flexible enough to pivot between value engines and explosive kills, this deck plays like a dark machine — fueled by sacrifice, recursion, and Korvold’s insatiable hunger for cards.

This isn’t your casual aristocrat pile. Once the cogs start turning, every death becomes a resource, every creature is fuel, and every turn draws you closer to overwhelming advantage. You're not just playing the board — you're consuming it.

Key Combos & Synergies

Korvold + Reassembling Skeleton + Phyrexian Altar + Pitiless Plunderer → Infinite draw, infinite mana, infinite sac triggers.

Dockside Extortionist + Temur Sabertooth → Infinite mana with enough artifacts.

Mayhem Devil + Goblin Bombardment + Sac Loop → Machine gun the board or the table.

Bloodghast + Skullclamp + Ashnod’s Altar → Value engine for draw + mana + recursive fodder.

Titania + World Shaper + Greater Good → Land sac and graveyard recursion for a card-drawing explosion.

Finale of Devastation + Craterhoof Behemoth + Token Swarm → “Oh no, the squirrels are charging again.”

Oracle of Mul Daya + Life from the Loam + Field of the Dead → Soft lock with grindy land value.

Bolas’s Citadel + Sensei’s Divining Top + Sac Outlet → Pseudo-storm, potentially deck yourself into a win.

What I’m Looking For:

Ideas to streamline the tutor package for speed vs. redundancy

Advice on how to shift flex slots when facing control-heavy pods

Input on balancing value engines vs. fast combo outs

Also, I’m experimenting with a thematic downshift into a second build called Gilded Hunger — a more expressive, slightly friendlier Korvold that keeps the recursion but drops some of the instant-kill seriousness. If you’ve brewed dual Korvold builds, I’d love to hear how you make them distinct!
