Overview:

This Naya (RGW) tokens/go-wide deck led by Kitt Kanto, Mayhem Diva focuses on creating creature swarms, manipulating combat through goad mechanics, and overwhelming opponents with token synergies. While moderately synergistic, it lacks infinite combos or efficient win conditions, operating primarily through incremental value and combat steps.

Primer:

Core Strategy:
The deck aims to flood the board with tokens using engines like Felidar Retreat, Scute Swarm, and Assemble the Legion, then leverage Kitt Kanto's combat-phase goad ability to disrupt opponents' defenses. Win conditions involve scaling token armies through anthem effects (Thunderfoot Baloth, Intangible Virtue) and explosive draw spells (Camaraderie, Shamanic Revelation). Secondary themes include political manipulation (Master of Ceremonies, Sylvan Offering) and goad redundancy (Agitator Ant, Bloodthirsty Blade).

Key Phases:

1. Setup (Turns 1-5): Ramp with Cultivate/Wood Elves, establish token engines like Awakening Zone.
2. Pressure (Turns 6-8): Activate Kitt Kanto's goad ability each turn while deploying threats like Champion of Lambholt.
3. Closure (Turns 9+): Convert wide boards into lethal via Beastmaster Ascension or Vivien's Stampede.

Mulligan Priorities:

• Keep hands with 3 lands and at least 1 ramp spell
• Prioritize early token generators (Prosperous Partnership, Rumor Gatherer)
• Avoid slow starts with multiple taplands

Critical Interactions:

• Bess, Soul Nourisher + 1/1 token generators = scaling commander damage threat
• Zurzoth, Chaos Rider + combat triggers = card advantage engine
• Grand Crescendo as both protection and token burst

Weaknesses:

Critical:

• No protection against board wipes (only 2 mass indestructible effects)
• Limited instant-speed interaction (4 targeted removals)

Moderate:

• Slow recovery from early stax (e.g., Torpor Orb effects)
• Relies on combat damage without evasion

Minor:

• Vulnerable to flyers (only Arasta of the Endless Web as reach)

Most Important Cards:

• Scute Swarm
• Felidar Retreat
• Thunderfoot Baloth
• Beastmaster Ascension
• Zurzoth, Chaos Rider
• Camaraderie
• Shamanic Revelation
• Assemble the Legion
• Scepter of Celebration
• Bess, Soul Nourisher

Attribute Ratings:

Speed: 5/10

• Earliest meaningful threat T5 (Felidar Retreat + land drop)
• Typical goldfish win T9-10 via combat

Resilience: 4/10

• Vulnerable to 2+ board wipes
• Limited recursion (only Boss's Chauffeur death trigger)

Consistency: 6/10

• 8 token engines + 5 card draw spells
• Lacks tutors for key pieces

Interaction: 3/10

• 4 targeted removals (Path to Exile, Beast Within)
• 2 board wipes (Martial Coup, Fell the Mighty)

Rating Justification:

This deck operates at the upper end of Casual/Precon (4.0) to lower Optimized Casual (5.0) levels. It outpaces basic precons through redundant token generation but lacks:

• Fast mana (only Sol Ring)
• Infinite combos
• Efficient interaction suite
• Early win potential (needs 8+ mana for Sandwurm Convergence payoff)

Power level: 4.0 - 5.0
