Deck overview

This deck is a Jeskai aggro and value list commanded by Arthur, Marigold Knight. The game plan revolves around deploying cheap utility creatures and ramp artifacts on the opening turns, then casting Arthur on Turn 4. Because Arthur has innate haste, he can immediately attack alongside a companion creature to dig six cards deep and put a large threat onto the battlefield tapped and attacking. Cheated creatures provide instant enter-the-battlefield value, deal heavy combat damage, and return to hand at the end of combat, creating a reusable engine. The deck finishes games by going wide with tokens from cards like Blade Splicer and Siege-Gang Commander, pumping the team with Jazal Goldmane, or triggering exponential power increases with Devilish Valet. A natural combo between Combat Celebrant and Helm of the Host provides an alternate win condition.
