Deck overview

This mono-green stompy deck is led by Beorn the Fierce, uniting Bear tribal synergies with robust Landfall token generation. The game plan focuses on deploying early ramp and cost-effective creatures on Turns 1–3, followed by resolving Beorn on Turn 4. Beorn immediately enhances the board by granting trample counters, converting creatures into Bears, providing a +2/+2 anthem, and drawing two cards per combat step once three Bears are assembled. From Turns 5 through 6, the deck expands its board presence through heavy landfall engines such as Greensleeves, Maro-Sorcerer, Rampaging Baloths, and Avenger of Zendikar. Overwhelming combat pressure is achieved using mass pump spells like Unnatural Growth and Preposterous Proportions, enabling lethal combat swings starting on Turn 6. While the deck boasts immense card advantage and recovery through resilient threats, it carries almost no reactive removal or stax interaction, remaining focused on racing opponents through overwhelming trampling damage.
