Deck overview

This deck is a high-velocity Naya token engine led by Baylen, the Haymaker. The strategy revolves around flooding the board with creature and artifact tokens through efficient generators such as Adeline, Resplendent Cathar, Anim Pakal, Thousandth Moon, Hop to It, and March of the Multitudes. Baylen converts these tokens into colored mana, rapid card draw, and personal power buffs. By accelerating through the library, the deck quickly gathers mass overrun payoffs like Jetmir, Nexus of Revels, Beastmaster Ascension, and Cathars' Crusade to deliver lethal combat damage across all opponents. It also houses an incidental infinite combo with Basking Broodscale and Rosie Cotton of South Lane that generates infinite Eldrazi Spawn tokens and arbitrary mana. Supported by versatile spot removal and instant-speed sweep protection, the deck reliably presents overwhelming board states by Turn 5 and closes games on Turn 6.
