Doran, The Siege Tower - Fugly Trees by Kwixzii

Format: Commander

Commander: Doran, the Siege Tower

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This is a classic toughness-matters Treefolk tribal deck helmed by Doran, the Siege Tower. The plan is straightforward: ramp heavily with land-search spells, deploy Doran to make every high-toughness Treefolk hit for its full toughness, and grind out combat wins. The deck leans on tribal redundancy - over 40 Treefolk creatures - with three backup toughness-matters enablers (Assault Formation, Felothar the Steadfast, and Doran, Besieged by Time) so the plan survives Doran's removal. Card advantage comes from toughness-scaled draw like Rishkar's Expertise and Return of the Wildspeaker, plus repeatable engines in Ulvenwald Observer and Sinister Gnarlbark. There are no infinite combos; victory is purely incremental combat damage, with Fangorn, Tree Shepherd providing vigilance and explosive green mana to chain multiple threats per turn.
