Yuma 3.1 by kaosthry

Format: Commander

Commander: Yuma, Proud Protector

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Yuma, Proud Protector is a Naya lands-in-graveyard engine. The deck feeds the graveyard with fetchlands and Desert cycles to discount Yuma, then sacrifices Deserts to his enter/attack triggers for card draw and 4/2 Plant Warrior tokens. Landfall payoffs like Avenger of Zendikar, Scute Swarm, and Field of the Dead, plus recursion from Crucible of Worlds, World Shaper, and Splendid Reclamation, build a wide board. Finishing comes from Craterhoof Behemoth, Finale of Devastation, Triumph of the Hordes, or the compact Kiki-Jiki + Zealous Conscripts infinite. There is no hidden commander; Ojer Taq is a force multiplier, not a build-around.
