Deck overview

This Jeskai aggressive deck is led by Sonic the Hedgehog, aiming to overwhelm opponents through rapid combat acceleration and keyword synergies. The strategy centers on deploying early creatures with haste and flash, establishing an aggressive board presence before casting Sonic on Turn 4. When Sonic attacks, it immediately distributes +1/+1 counters to all attacking haste and flash creatures, while generating tapped Treasure tokens whenever those creatures take damage. In the midgame, the deck compounds this pressure using damage-multiplying payoffs such as Raphael, the Nightwatcher, Aurelia, the Law Above, and Full Throttle, escalating combat damage across multiple attack steps. High-end finishers like Moonshaker Cavalry and Super State provide decisive board-wide lethality to close out games by Turn 7. Supporting recursion from Sun Titan and Angel of Indemnity offers resilience against wipes, while Helm of the Host paired with Aurelia serves as an infinite combat contingency.
