Our First Game of Two Headed Giant! B-TEAM VS THE STOKES - WPCS 148

Deck & Commander Strategies

• 

  Killian, Ink Duelist

  Build an aura and enchantment-based army that buffs a single creature with lifelink and menace, reducing the cost of targeted spells to increase efficiency and overwhelm opponents with a large, evasive threat.

• 

  Ivy, Gleeful Spellthief

  Copy spells targeting other creatures to protect and empower Ivy while maintaining pressure with a flying threat and enchantment synergies, enabling surprise interactions and aggressive swings.

• 

  Queen Marchesa

  Control the board by becoming the monarch for card draw advantage, utilize instant-speed interaction with Sunforger to disrupt opponents, and generate pressure with death touch and haste creatures.

• 

  Zhulodok, Void Gorger

  Cascade into high-cost, powerful creatures to establish a strong board presence acting as the tank for the team, leveraging large threats to control the battlefield and support the partner deck.

Gameplay Insights
