🔥 Who Gave Olivia a Mono Red Deck? 🔥 ft. Torbran, Mowu, Yarok & Slimefoot | Elder Dragon Hijinks #10

Deck & Commander Strategies

• 

  Torbran, Thane of Red Fell

  The Torbran deck strategy revolves around using burn spells and creature abilities that deal damage to opponents. The Immolation Shaman and Harsh Mentor are key pieces, punishing opponents for activating non-mana abilities.

• 

  Yarok, the Desecrated

  The Yarok deck capitalizes on ETB effects. A key component of its strategy is ramping mana, playing creatures with beneficial ETB effects, and amplifying those effects with Yarok.

• 

  Slimefoot, the Stowaway

  The Slimefoot deck centers on creating a 'garden' of saproling tokens and manipulating the graveyard, as evidenced by the early play of Necrogenesis.

• 

  Mowu, Loyal Companion

  The Mowu deck aims to load up Mowu and other creatures with +1/+1 counters and utilize various synergies around those counters. An early play of Scavenging Ooze sets the stage for this strategy.

Gameplay Insights

• 1

  The early deployment of Immolation Shaman and Harsh Mentor by the Torbran deck can severely limit the options of the other players, forcing them to reconsider the use of non-mana abilities.

• 2

  The Yarok deck's use of Growing Rites of Itlimoc indicates an upcoming ramp in mana and a potential flood of creatures with beneficial ETB effects.

• 3

  The Slimefoot deck's play of Necrogenesis suggests a potential strategy of both saproling generation and graveyard manipulation.

• 4

  The Mowu deck's early deployment of Scavenging Ooze sets the stage for a +1/+1 counter strategy, but also provides a potential check against decks that rely heavily on their graveyards.
