Deck Strategies

  • Arahbo, Roar of the World

    Arahbo, Roar of the World

    The deck aims to quickly deploy low-cost cats and pump them into huge attackers with Arahbo's Eminence ability. Cat lords and card draw elements keep the momentum going.

  • Rin and Seri, Inseparable

    Rin and Seri, Inseparable

    This deck looks to take advantage of casting both cats and dogs, generating a token of the other type with each cast. Once the board is filled with tokens, the deck aims to pump and swing out for the win.

  • Denry Klin, Editor in Chief

    Denry Klin, Editor in Chief

    This deck relies on creating copies of Denry Klin and other creatures, bypassing the legend rule. The deck also uses counter synergies to make the growing army of clones even more powerful.

  • Brimaz, Blight of Oreskos

    Brimaz, Blight of Oreskos

    The deck aims to flood the board with Phyrexian creatures, using sacrifice outlets to proliferate both +1/+1 and poison counters, turning proliferation into domination.

Summary

In this exciting game of Cat-themed decks, all players brought powerful strategies to the table. Rachel started the game off strong, casting Arahbo, Roar of the World and applying early pressure with an aggressively costed cat tribal strategy. Olivia, piloting Rin and Seri, Inseparable, aimed to flood the board with both cats and dogs, generating a swarm of tokens. CGB, with Denry Klin, Editor in Chief, sought to control the board by cloning not only his commander but also his opponents' creatures, using counter synergies to enhance his army. Lastly, Jimmy, commanding Brimaz, Blight of Oreskos, focused on proliferating counters, aiming for a combination of +1/+1 and poison counters to dominate. The game saw early aggression from Rachel quickly met with defensive maneuvers from the other players. Olivia began to amass a formidable board presence with her token strategy, whilst Jimmy started setting up his proliferation engine.
