Deck overview

This deck is a synergistic Bant aggro-tempo strategy led by Choco, Seeker of Paradise. It pairs low-cost, evasive Bird creatures with potent landfall triggers and flying anthems. Early turns focus on deploying mana accelerators and cheap flyers like Birds of Paradise, Cloudfin Raptor, and Augury Owl. Once Choco enters the battlefield on turn 3 or 4, attacking with Birds allows you to dig multiple cards deep, drawing the best card and placing all revealed lands directly onto the battlefield. This surge of extra lands triggers team-wide buffs from Canyon Jerboa, Maja, Bretagard Protector, and Chocobo Racetrack, swelling your flyers into a lethal air force. The deck protects its advancing board with versatile defensive tools such as Restoration Magic, Unbreakable Formation, and Sephara, Sky's Blade while using efficient interaction to disrupt opposing strategies and close out the game through evasive combat damage.
