Deck overview

Atla Palani, Nest Tender is the engine of this Naya creature-cheat deck: she makes Eggs, and sacrifice outlets flip them into enormous Dinosaurs, Eldrazi, and combo pieces. The primary plan is to ramp into Atla, repeatedly crack Eggs to put high-end threats into play, and close with Craterhoof Behemoth or a wide attack from Gishath, Etali, or Ghalta. Secondary lines include Polyraptor plus Marauding Raptor with an ETB damage outlet for infinite damage, and Maskwood Nexus plus Thornbite Staff loops that turn Atla into a repeatable tutor. Tutors and top-deck manipulation keep the engine reliable, while protection spells and recursive threats protect the board.
