  Aggressive and value-driven, this pairing generates tokens and card draw through combat damage and life loss effects, leveraging tutors and efficient creatures to maintain pressure and assemble combos.

  Kraum, Ludevic's Opus

  Supports Blue Farm’s interaction-heavy game plan by drawing cards when dealing combat damage, helping to maintain a steady flow of counterspells, removal, and disruption to protect combos and control the game state.
