Strategy
Korvold, Fae-Cursed King leads a deck built from the cards players most often run with it, sacrificing its own creatures for value and draining the table. The list holds 21 ramp pieces, 9 pieces of targeted interaction, 2 board wipes and 9 sources of card draw, at an average mana value of 2.59.
Early: The early turns belong to ramp. Tireless Provisioner and the other 21 ramp pieces exist to get Korvold, Fae-Cursed King out well before its printed cost of 5 would allow.
Mid: Once the commander is down, the deck wants to be doing two things at once: advancing its own board and answering everyone else's. Mayhem Devil is the first answer you will usually reach for, and Professional Face-Breaker keeps the hand full while you do it.
Late: Hold Blasphemous Act for the turn the table gets ahead of you - with 2 in the deck you can afford to use one early and still have an answer later. At 2.59 average mana value the top end is cheap, so expect to deploy several spells a turn.
Win conditions: Wins by draining life a few points at a time while the board keeps recurring.
