Deck overview

This is a five-color Warrior-combo aggro deck helmed by Najeela, the Blade-Blossom. The plan is to deploy Najeela behind a mana dork or rock, attack with her to spawn a tide of tapped-and-attacking Warrior tokens, then land one of the untap/mana engines - Nature's Will, Druids' Repository, Bear Umbra, or Derevi, Empyrial Tactician - and chain Najeela's {W}{U}{B}{R}{G} activation into repeated extra combat steps. Because every attacking Warrior doubles the token count each combat, the army becomes arbitrarily large within a single turn, ending via raw damage, Brutal Hordechief drain, or Suki, Kyoshi Captain double strike. The deck is genuinely hybrid: a functional Warrior beatdown plan led by Lovisa Coldeyes, Shared Animosity, and Cathars' Crusade backs up the combo, while Alesha, Who Smiles at Death and Bloodline Bidding rebuild after wipes, and Kutzil, Malamet Exemplar / Marisi, Breaker of the Coil freeze opponents out of interacting on the kill turn. Derevi even acts as a second, castable-from-command-zone engine piece.
