Deck overview

Alela, Cunning Conqueror pilots a draw-go faerie tempo deck that generates a flying army during each opponent's turn, then leverages that army to goad incoming threats and grind out life-total advantages. The primary plan is to play a flash-heavy interaction suite, create 1/1 Faerie Rogue tokens every opponent turn, and close with lord-buffed combat damage plus drain from Obyra and Faerie Tauntings. A secondary path is to win via card advantage, using Nymris and Rhystic Study to out-value opponents, plus Halo Forager and Mystic Sanctuary to recur key spells. Alela is the generator of the army; both her token trigger and goad ability matter, but the deck retains a functional midrange plan even without her.
