Strategy

Anim Pakal, Thousandth Moon leads a deck built from the cards players most often run with it, pointing repeated damage at players. The list holds 12 ramp pieces, 9 pieces of targeted interaction, 2 board wipes and 10 sources of card draw, at an average mana value of 2.78.

Early: Use the early turns on mana. Smothering Tithe and the rest of the 12 ramp pieces are what let the deck cast Anim Pakal, Thousandth Moon on curve and keep casting after it.

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. Swords to Plowshares is the first answer you will usually reach for, and Losheel, Clockwork Scholar 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 2.78 average mana value the top end is cheap, so expect to deploy several spells a turn.

Win conditions: Wins by pointing damage at players until they run out of life.
