Deck overview
This deck is a Boros political token strategy led by Iroh, Tea Master. The primary game plan revolves around casting Iroh early, generating non-threatening permanents like Food, and donating them to opponents at each combat step. In exchange, Iroh creates Ally tokens that enter with +1/+1 counters equal to the total count of permanents you own that opponents control. To ensure survival while building an army, the deck deploys defensive pillowfort pieces like Ghostly Prison, Windborn Muse, and Crawlspace, alongside goad effects such as Disrupt Decorum to force opponents to attack one another. The deck wins by using +1/+1 counter lords like Abzan Falconer and damage modifiers like Duelist's Heritage to deliver lethal combat damage across multiple rotations. While resilient against ground attacks, the deck relies heavily on natural draws and remains vulnerable to well-timed board sweepers and non-combat combos.
