Commander: Arahbo, Roar of the World

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a GW Cat tribal beatdown deck built around Arahbo's Eminence. It pressures early with a cheap double-striker, then transitions into a wide Cat swarm fueled by Leonin Warleader, Brimaz, King of Oreskos, and Pride Sovereign. Arahbo can remain in the command zone to give +3/+3 every combat, but he is usually cast when the extra attack-trigger pump is needed to turn one attacker into a one-shot threat. There is no true hidden commander: Nazahn serves as an equipment tutor and the other legends act as anthem/synergy pieces. The deck finishes either through a mass-pump alpha strike using Overwhelming Stampede or Beastmaster Ascension, or by keeping 40 life and letting Felidar Sovereign win on the next upkeep. Equipment and instant-speed protection keep the key Cat alive through the critical turn.
