Deck overview

This deck is an aggressive Boros Dwarf tribal strategy led by Thorin, King of Durin's Folk. The plan focuses on curving out with low-cost Dwarves and Equipment during the early turns to build a wide board presence. Once Thorin enters on turn 5, he creates a Treasure token and immediately gives all other Dwarves +1/+0 for each artifact token you control. Subsequent Dwarf spells generate additional Treasures, rapidly increasing the combat power of the entire team. By turn 6, the deck turns this power scaling into lethal attacks, using double strike from Dáin Ironfoot and combat keywords to eliminate opponents across turns 6 through 8. Efficient spot removal like Swords to Plowshares and Path to Exile handles blockers and critical threats. While vulnerable to mass removal, the deck recovers using alternate anthems, equipment, and redundant Dwarf threats.
