Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a mono-green Hydra tribal deck helmed by Gargos, Vicious Watcher, built to leverage his cost reduction and fight triggers. The strategy revolves around deploying cheap, high-X hydras, supercharging them with a dense suite of +1/+1 counter doublers, and overwhelming opponents with giant trample creatures. The deck packs many cast synergies-cost reducers, land ramp, and card draw that triggers off creatures power 4+-to enable a smooth beatdown. The fight triggers from Gargos provide recurring removal while also helping to keep the board clear. There are no infinite combos; the primary win is through combat damage via massive hydras, with occasional token generation from Hydra Broodmaster or Hooded Hydra.
