Deck overview

This deck is an aggressive Naya combat stompy build commanded by Tifa, Martial Artist. The strategy revolves around leveraging Tifa's Melee ability and combat damage triggers to generate additional combat phases and untap attacking creatures. A dense ramp package of 16 one- and two-drop accelerators consistently lands Tifa on Turn 3 and operational enablers on Turn 4. The deck magnifies combat steps using redundant power-doublers and attack multipliers such as Wulfgar of Icewind Dale, Xenagos, God of Revels, Annie Joins Up, and Karlach, Fury of Avernus. Draw power scales aggressively with combat connections through engines like Toski, Bearer of Secrets and Ohran Frostfang, drawing multiple cards across consecutive combats. An extensive instant-speed protection suite featuring Heroic Intervention, Flawless Maneuver, and Deflecting Swat shields the board from destruction. The deck reliably presents a must-answer damage state on Turn 5 and closes the game on Turn 6.
