Deck overview

This Bant midrange deck leverages +1/+1 counter distribution, proliferate engines, and combat triggers to build an overwhelming board state. Commanded by Tidus, Yuna's Guardian, the deck establishes an early engine by deploying cheap counter producers like Hardened Scales, Guide of Souls, and Innkeeper's Talent before casting Tidus on Turn 3. Starting on Turn 4, Tidus rearranges counters and converts combat connections into steady card draw and proliferate triggers through Cheer. The midgame compounds this advantage using scaling mana dorks like Gyre Sage and Incubation Druid, alongside powerful multipliers such as Doubling Season, The Earth Crystal, and Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus. By Turn 6, the deck presents a decisive must-answer combat wave, closing games over two subsequent turns with evasion from Duskshell Crawler, double strike from Chocobo Knights, or an explosive Akroma's Will. Alternate routes like Simic Ascendancy provide non-combat victory paths if creature attacks stall.
