EDH AYULA by francopane

Format: Commander

Commander: Ayula, Queen Among Bears

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a mono-green Bear tribal deck built to extract maximum value from Ayula, Queen Among Bears's ETB trigger: every Bear that enters either piles +1/+1 counters onto the team or fights a blocker off the board. The plan is a classic go-wide aggro curve - deploy cheap 2/2 Bear bodies and changelings, amass a critical mass, then crack the game open with a single massive pump effect. Token generation via Ayula's Influence, Bearscape, and Grizzly Fate keeps the board stocked, while a dense draw suite (Beast Whisperer, Guardian Project, Tribute to the World Tree, The Great Henge) keeps hands full. The deck finishes the table with an alpha strike from Craterhoof Behemoth, Overwhelming Stampede, Beastmaster Ascension, or Unnatural Growth. It is a straightforward, resilient combat deck with no infinite combos and a heavy reliance on the commander as its counter-and-fight payoff engine.
