Deck Strategies
Etali, Primal Storm
The strategy revolves around using Etali to create card advantage by casting cards from the top of all player's libraries. Aiding this plan are cards that give Etali haste and effects that force opponents to not block.
Tetzimoc, Primal Death
This deck aims to control the board by using Tetzimoc's ability to place prey counters and destroy creatures. It employs recursion effects to repeatedly use this ability.
Ghalta, Primal Hunger
The Ghalta deck is focused on getting Ghalta out as quickly as possible, using creatures with high power to reduce its cost, and then dealing lethal commander damage.
Zetalpa, Primal Dawn
The plan here is to use Zetalpa's indestructibility and additional combat damage effects to keep opponents on the back foot. The deck also contains cards to bring Zetalpa back from the graveyard.
