Deck overview

This deck is a high-velocity Mardu combat aggro strategy helmed by Neriv, Heart of the Storm. The overarching strategy revolves around generating aggressive creature tokens that enter the battlefield tapped and attacking, or using haste and myriad enablers to trigger Neriv's passive ability. Because Neriv doubles all damage dealt by creatures that entered the battlefield this turn, even modest 1/1 Goblin or Soldier tokens become formidable 2-damage threats, while myriad clones and heavy hitters like Lightning Skelemental strike for devastating double damage. Supported by redundant token producers such as Adeline, Resplendent Cathar, Anim Pakal, Thousandth Moon, and Otharri, Suns' Glory, the deck builds wide boards quickly. Its interaction suite features flexible Mardu spot removal to clear troublesome blockers and threats, though it remains vulnerable to well-timed board wipes and heavy pillowfort strategies.
