Overview:
A mono-green stompy deck led by Kona, Rescue Beastie that focuses on ramping into large creatures and using Kona's ability to cheat them onto the battlefield for free.
Primer:
This deck's primary strategy revolves around tapping Kona, Rescue Beastie to enable its ability to put permanents onto the battlefield for free during the second main phase. The deck runs numerous mana dorks and tap effects to ensure Kona can be tapped consistently, while also including powerful high-cost creatures like Worldspine Wurm, Impervious Greatwurm, and It That Betrays as payoffs.
The secondary strategy involves traditional green ramp into big creatures, supported by cards like Kodama's Reach and Sol Ring. The deck includes protection pieces like Swiftfoot Boots and Champion's Helm to keep key creatures safe, while cards like Guardian Project and Garruk's Uprising provide card advantage when deploying threats.
Weaknesses:
The deck is heavily reliant on its commander to execute its primary strategy, making it vulnerable to removal. The mana base appears insufficient for a deck running numerous high-cost spells, which could lead to consistency issues. The deck also lacks sufficient interaction beyond creature-based removal, making it vulnerable to combo decks and problematic permanents.

Attribute Ratings:
- Speed: 4/10
- Resilience: 3/10
- Consistency: 3/10
- Interaction: 2/10
Rating Justification:
This deck falls into the casual category due to its relatively slow gameplan and reliance on combat damage to win. While it has some powerful individual cards, the insufficient mana base and lack of consistent early game plays hold it back from higher power levels. When compared to a power level 5 deck, it lacks the consistency and interaction package to compete effectively. However, it still maintains a clear strategy and includes some powerful effects that put it above purely unfocused decks.
Final power level rating: 3.5 - 4.0
Kona, Rescue Beastie
