Deck overview

This deck is an aggressive Boros burn and token strategy commanded by Arabella, Abandoned Doll. Instead of relying on traditional combat damage alone, Arabella weaponizes a wide board of creatures with power 2 or less to deal direct, unblockable damage to every opponent whenever she attacks. The deck assembles a low-curve board presence using efficient token generators such as Hop to It, Endless Foot Assault, and Adeline, Resplendent Cathar. Auxiliary burn cards like Purphoros, God of the Forge, Impact Tremors, and Agate Instigator supplement this life drain by punishing opponents whenever new tokens enter the battlefield. While the deck boasts high redundancy among small creatures and reliable draw engines like Welcoming Vampire and Caretaker's Talent, it carries minimal stack interaction and no stax pieces. It aims to apply relentless pressure starting on turn 5 and close out the game by turn 7.
