Deck overview

This deck is a synergistic Bant aggro-midrange list commanded by Tidus, Yuna's Guardian, focused on +1/+1 counter placement, counter manipulation, and proliferate mechanics. The deck ramps on Turns 1–2, deploys Tidus on Turn 3, and begins generating card advantage and teamwide counter proliferation on Turn 4 via Tidus's Cheer ability. On Turn 5, it deploys massive scaling threats such as Sovereign Okinec Ahau, Ouroboroid, or Chocobo Knights, or casts one-sided board wipes like Damning Verdict and Wave Goodbye to blow out opposing boards. The deck accelerates through high-yield mana dorks like Kami of Whispered Hopes and Incubation Druid, protects its assets with efficient spells like Inspiring Call and Protection Magic, and closes out games by Turn 7 via overwhelming trample and double-striking combat damage.
