Deck overview

This deck is a Naya Landfall and Earthbend strategy commanded by Toph, the First Metalbender. Toph turns nontoken artifacts into lands and animates a land each end step with earthbend, granting it haste, counters, and resilient self-recursion if it leaves the battlefield. The rest of the list exploits this synergy through classic landfall triggers, turning land drops into mana acceleration, card draw, direct damage, and wide creature armies. Cards like Lotus Cobra and Tireless Provisioner fuel rapid mana development, while Scute Swarm, Rampaging Baloths, and Felidar Retreat build massive boards. Graveyard engines such as Ramunap Excavator and Ancient Greenwarden allow repeated fetchland activations to trigger landfall multiple times each turn. The deck finishes games on Turn 6 or 7 by overwhelming opponents with massive token swings, extra combat phases from Moraug, Fury of Akoum, or an infect push via Triumph of the Hordes.
