Shakuni was angered when his sister Gandhari was married to a Blind king.
He wanted to destroy the Hastinapur kingdom, but since he was not so powerful....he derived another way.
He sowed seeds of hatered for pandavas into the hearts of his nephew Duryodhan....
He used secret agents, gambling, and spreading misinformation as his weapons..or his niti
thus it is mainly Shakuni who was mainly responsible for the great war and death of all Kauravas

One of the chief villains in the Hindu epic, the Mahabharata, Shakuni was the brother of Gandhari. He was very fond of his nephew Duryodhana. He won the Pandavas' half of the kingdom for his nephew, as a wager in a rigged game of dice. The dice that were used were made with Shakuni's father's thigh bones and would always do his bidding.
Some sources say Shakuni had been insulted when his beloved sister has been married to a blind man and swore to destroy the Kaurava clan. He achieved this by poisoning the mind of his volatile nephew, and influenced Duryodhana into instigating the war with the Pandavas, which resulted in the destruction of the Kauravas. Thus, he is seen by many as the ultimate cause of the destructive Kurukshetra War

SAKUNI. One of the chief villains in the Hindu epic, the Mahabharata, Shakuni was the brother of Gandhari. He was very fond of his nephew Duryodhana. He won the Pandavas' half of the kingdom for his nephew, as a wager in a rigged game of dice. The dice that were used were made with Shakuni's father's thigh bones and would always do his bidding. He is very cunning and his motto is to destroy or give hardship to those he does like by hook or crook. This is called Sakuni Needi. Here it is pertinent to add that as per some sources say Shakuni had been insulted when his beloved sister has been married to a blind man and swore to destroy the Kaurava clan. He achieved this by poisoning the mind of his volatile nephew, and influenced Duryodhana into instigating the war with the Pandavas, which resulted in the destruction of the Kauravas. Thus, he is seen by many as the ultimate cause of the destructive Kurukshetra War Brother of Queen Gandhari, and so uncle of the Kaurava princes. He was a skillful gambler and a cheat, so he was selected to be the opponent of Yudishthira in the match in which that prince was induced to stake and lose his all.

Niti in Sanskrit means policy, strategy or vision
so maybe Shakuni Niti is Shakuni's policy
