Deck overview

This is a Bant Dog tribal token-generation deck helmed by Sophia, Dogged Detective. The core plan is to deploy Sophia, create Tiny (a legendary Dog token), and weaponize her combat trigger - Food plus investigate - through a dense package of token doublers (Anointed Procession, Doubling Season, Parallel Lives, Primal Vigor, Adrix and Nev, Twincasters, Mondrak, Glory Dominus, Elspeth, Storm Slayer) and Academy Manufactor, which converts every Clue/Food/Treasure into all three. The deck wins through combat: a critical mass of pumped Dogs finished by Craterhoof Behemoth, Mirror Entity, or Caretaker's Talent's level-3 anthem. It is a slow, value-oriented midrange deck with no fast mana and no stack interaction, relying on inevitability through token multiplication rather than speed.
