Arabella, Abandoned Doll

Format: Commander

Commander: Arabella, Abandoned Doll

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This Boros go-wide deck is built around Arabella, Abandoned Doll, leveraging her attack trigger to deal damage to each opponent equal to the number of creatures you control with power 2 or less. The strategy deploys a swarm of small creatures-including tokens, low-cost utility bodies, and instant/sorcery-synergy payoffs-to maximize the damage count. Secondary burn from Guttersnipe and Thunderdrum Soloist chips away at life totals, while Fear of Missing Out provides an extra combat step to accelerate the clock. The deck lacks explosive combo lines and relies on incremental combat damage, but its low curve and dense token generation allow it to rebuild reasonably after wipes. The commander is the primary win condition, and the deck's threat density is almost entirely dependent on her presence.
