Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This deck is a highly explosive, Naya-colored cheat-into-play strategy helmed by Atla Palani, Nest Tender. The primary game plan revolves around deploying Atla, generating Egg tokens, and sacrificing them to bypass mana costs and polymorph massive, game-ending threats directly from the library onto the battlefield. By utilizing free sacrifice outlets like Ashnod's Altar and Goblin Bombardment, the deck can rapidly cycle through Eggs to cheat out devastating payloads such as Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger, Blightsteel Colossus, and It That Betrays. The deck also features a robust infinite combo package, utilizing Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and Village Bell-Ringer for infinite hasty tokens, alongside infinite polymorph loops enabled by Maskwood Nexus or Thornbite Staff. To ensure these game-winning turns resolve uninterrupted, the deck employs a dense suite of stax and silence effects like Grand Abolisher and Dragonlord Dromoka. It plays as a proactive, resilient combo-aggro hybrid that demands immediate answers before it overwhelms the board.
