Deck overview

Felothar the Steadfast commands an Abzan combat deck built around toughness-based combat mechanics. The deck deploys low-cost, high-toughness defenders during the opening turns to establish an impenetrable defensive wall and accelerate mana with pieces like Overgrown Battlement and Axebane Guardian. Once Felothar enters the battlefield, your defenders can attack immediately and deal combat damage equal to their toughness rather than power. Felothar also converts spare defenders into massive bursts of card advantage by drawing cards equal to their toughness. Redundant engines such as Doran, the Siege Tower, Assault Formation, and Bedrock Tortoise ensure the combat plan stays active if the commander is removed. One-sided board wipes like Slaughter the Strong, Dusk // Dawn, and Expel the Interlopers wipe out opposing threats while leaving your low-power army intact. Combat buffs such as Tower Defense and evasion from Behind the Scenes allow the deck to break through board stalls and close out games rapidly across turns 5 to 7.
