Deck overview

This deck is an aggressive Naya combat engine commanded by Tifa, Martial Artist. The primary game plan revolves around accelerating mana in the opening turns, deploying Tifa on curve, and immediately modifying her or another creature to reach the critical threshold of 7 power. When a 7-power creature connects with an opponent, Tifa untaps your entire board and grants an additional combat phase, effectively doubling your offensive output and damage triggers each turn. The list supports this game plan through efficient equipment like Hero's Blade and Buster Sword, power-doubling permanents like Xenagos, God of Revels and Unnatural Growth, and massive beaters such as Ghalta, Primal Hunger and Gishath, Sun's Avatar. While the deck features robust creature protection through phase-out spells and hexproof equipment, it relies entirely on fair combat damage without infinite combos, making it vulnerable to well-timed fog effects, instant-speed interaction during combat steps, and repeated board sweepers.
