Deck overview

This mono-green aggro deck uses Glistener Elf in the command zone to quickly apply poison counters and knock out opponents through lethal infect damage. By casting its one-mana commander on Turn 1 and following up with efficient pump spells like Aspect of Hydra, Titanic Growth, and Bestow Greatness, the deck can threaten to eliminate a single player as early as Turn 3. Evasion equipment such as Aeronaut's Wings and auras like Treetop Bracers help bypass ground blockers, while proliferate creatures such as Bloom Hulk and Contagious Vorrac tick up poison counters across the table. Despite this explosive early single-target speed, the deck struggles in multiplayer pods due to its narrow single-target combat focus, absence of card draw engines, lack of stack interaction, and high vulnerability to spot removal and board wipes.
