Deck overview

Felothar the Steadfast commands an Abzan toughness-matters aggro-midrange deck designed to weaponize high-toughness, low-cost defenders into lethal attackers. The game plan centers on curving out under-costed walls like Wall of Junk and Indomitable Ancients during the opening turns, then casting Felothar the Steadfast to convert toughness directly into combat damage while lifting defender attack restrictions. Once assembled, Felothar's activated ability provides an immense burst card-draw engine by sacrificing high-toughness creatures for minimal discard, keeping your hand full of gas. The deck utilizes asymmetric sweepers such as Slaughter the Strong, Wave of Reckoning, and Destined Confrontation to wipe opposing boards while leaving your 0-power army untouched. Evasion enablers like Behind the Scenes and Sidar Kondo of Jamuraa alongside explosive combat buffs like Tower Defense allow the deck to close games rapidly. Backup toughness enablers such as Bedrock Tortoise and Ghalta the Immovable ensure resilience if the commander is removed.
