Deck & Commander Strategies
Orah, Skyclave Hierophant
The deck focuses on the synergy of the Cleric tribe, using cards like Edgewalker to reduce casting costs and Dark Supplicant to fetch Scion of Darkness. It leverages graveyard recursion to maximize value from the Cleric tribe.
Ashaya, Soul of the Wild
The Ashaya deck aims to exploit landfall triggers and the interaction between land creatures and buffs like Sylvan Advocate. It also includes a Tireless Tracker for card draw and ramp.
Tazri, Beacon of Unity
This deck is built around the 'party' mechanic, leveraging the synergy between the Cleric, Rogue, Warrior, and Wizard creature types. The game plan likely involves assembling a complete party to maximize Tazri's ability.
Charix, the Raging Isle
The deck aims to manipulate Charix's power and toughness, possibly using cards like Merfolk Thaumaturgist. This could allow for sudden, unexpected lethal damage to opponents.
