Deck overview

Cloud, Ex-SOLDIER leads a Naya Equipment aggro strategy designed to cheat equip costs and apply immediate combat pressure. The deck pairs early mana acceleration and low-cost Equipment with Cloud's haste and enter-the-battlefield auto-attach trigger, bypassing hefty equip costs on game-ending weapons like Colossus Hammer and Wrecking Ball Arm. Upon attacking with 7 or greater power, Cloud replaces cards in hand and generates Treasure tokens to fuel further board development. Secondary combat threats like Sephiroth, Fallen Hero, Vincent, Vengeful Atoner, and Tifa, Martial Artist provide high-impact backup lines and extra combat phases to close out the table. A dense suite of single-target removal in white, green, and red keeps threatening opposing permanents off the board, while protective equipment and phase-out spells like Clever Concealment shield your equipped attackers from opposing disruption.
