Ocean Man v7 (card tests) by user9209658

Format: Commander

Commander: Rikala, Homarid King

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Rikala, Homarid King leads a Simic sea-monster deck that ramps into Island-heavy board states, builds three tide counters, then uses the extra blue mana and +3/+0 anthem to deploy and push through large Krakens, Leviathans, and Serpents. Token producers like Koma, Cosmos Serpent, Spawning Kraken, and Fisher's Talent snowball combat, while counterspells, bounce, and Collective Resistance protect the board. The Dark Depths-Thespian's Stage pairing gives a compact 20/20 indestructible backup win. Although the plan is linear and commander-reliant for speed, it has strong card draw and interaction to survive long games.
