Yuma

Format: Commander

Commander: Yuma, Proud Protector

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a Naya lands-matter deck helmed by Yuma, Proud Protector, built around a single dense loop: ramp lands, fill the graveyard with them (cycling Deserts, self-mill), recur them from the graveyard, and chain landfall triggers into a token army. The commander is a hybrid draw engine and token generator - his cost is discounted by lands in the graveyard, he draws cards by sacrificing lands on entry/attack, and every Desert that hits the graveyard makes a 4/2 Plant Warrior. The 99 is packed with redundant land-recursion pieces (Ramunap Excavator, Ancient Greenwarden, Perennial Behemoth, Conduit of Worlds, Six, Mole Man, Moloid Master, Hazezon, Shaper of Sand) and landfall payoffs (Scute Swarm, Rampaging Baloths, Omnath, Locus of Rage, Avenger of Zendikar). The primary win is combat - a wide board finished by Overwhelming Stampede or Full Throttle - with Terror of the Peaks and Omnath's death triggers as secondary reach.
