Deck & Commander Strategies

  Trelasarra, Moon Dancer

  Gain life to place +1/+1 counters on Trelasarra, synergizing with life gain and token production to outvalue opponents and develop a threatening board state.

• 

  Ms. Bumbleflower

  Utilize the preconstructed deck's tribal and synergy elements to generate incremental advantage and disrupt opponents while supporting the group dynamic.

  Sacrifice lands to fill the graveyard, then generate Spirit tokens and leverage land recursion spells to maintain board presence and chip away at opponents' life totals.

  Tenuous Truth was used to create a mutual card draw at each end step between the enchantor and the enchanted opponent, effectively simulating a Monarch-like effect and providing card advantage.

  Quintorius’s ability to create Spirit tokens whenever cards leave the graveyard combined with land sacrifice and recursion created a steady stream of tokens and incremental damage without excessive spell casting.
