Deck overview

This deck is an aggressive Boros go-wide strategy commanded by Arabella, Abandoned Doll. Instead of relying purely on connecting in combat, the deck turns every 1/1 and 2/2 creature into direct, unblockable burn that hits all three opponents simultaneously whenever Arabella attacks. A deep roster of token generators—ranging from burst spells like Increasing Devotion and Sram's Expertise to compounding engines like Horn of Gondor and Adeline, Resplendent Cathar—floods the battlefield with low-power bodies. As Arabella attacks, she drains opposing life totals while refilling your own life buffer, rendering traditional blocking strategies ineffective. Secondary finishers such as Hellrider, Neyali, Suns' Vanguard, and Witty Roastmaster amplify damage output, while Goblin Bombardment converts dying tokens into reach. Backed by solid white spot removal and board-protection instants, the deck presents a relentless combat clock that forces opponents to wipe the board repeatedly or face rapid elimination.
