Commander: Ghalta, Primal Hunger

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a mono-green battlecruiser deck that uses early elves and land-fetch ramp to make Ghalta, Primal Hunger cost almost nothing, then buries opponents under trampling dinosaurs, Eldrazi, and landfall tokens. Ghalta is the clearest expression of the plan: total creature power is the resource the deck spends. Behind the commander, Kodama of the East Tree and a landfall package (Scute Swarm, Rampaging Baloths, Sporemound, Tireless Provisioner) create redundant board presence, while a three-card infinite-mana loop with Circle of Dreams Druid, Karametra's Acolyte, and Staff of Domination can end the game through a massive Pest Infestation. Removal is mostly fight-based and sorcery-speed, so the deck leans on raw power and rebuild speed more than stack interaction.
