Deck overview

Tidus, Yuna's Guardian leads a synergistic Bant +1/+1 counters deck designed to build an overwhelming combat presence through scalable counters and steady proliferation. The deck curves out early with efficient mana ramp like Birds of Paradise and Incubation Druid alongside counter enhancers such as Hardened Scales and Bristly Bill, Spine Sower. Deploying Tidus, Yuna's Guardian by Turn 3 or 4 establishes a repeatable card-draw and proliferate engine whenever modified creatures connect in combat. The midgame focuses on exponentially expanding the power of your board using multipliers like Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus, Maester Seymour, and Chocobo Knights. Evasion pieces like Herald of Secret Streams and Sphere Grid translate massive power into unblockable lethal strikes, while asymmetric tools such as Damning Verdict clear away opposing blockers. Robust protection spells including Mutational Advantage and Inspiring Call safeguard your threats from board wipes, allowing you to steadily eliminate all three opponents across sequential combat steps.
