Overview:
A Naya Dinosaur tribal deck led by Pantlaza, Sun-Favored that combines aggressive creature strategies with value-generating discover mechanics, aiming to overwhelm opponents with large creatures while maintaining card advantage through ETB triggers.
Primer:
The deck's primary strategy revolves around ramping quickly into large dinosaurs while leveraging Pantlaza, Sun-Favored's discover ability to generate additional value. Early game focuses on establishing mana acceleration through various mana dorks and ramp spells, setting up for explosive mid-game plays. The deck includes several protection pieces and blink effects to protect key creatures and re-trigger valuable ETB effects.
The secondary strategy involves using various card advantage engines like The Great Henge, Guardian Project, and Garruk's Uprising to maintain hand size while deploying threats. The deck can close games through combat damage with large dinosaurs or through value accumulation from repeated discover triggers. The inclusion of cards like Akroma's Will provides explosive finishing potential.
Weaknesses:
The deck is vulnerable to board wipes and mass removal, though it includes some protection through blink effects. The high curve of dinosaur creatures can lead to clunky opening hands and potentially slow starts if early ramp isn't found. The strategy is also somewhat commander-dependent, as many of the value engines rely on creature ETB triggers working with Pantlaza's ability.

Attribute Ratings:
- Speed: 5/10
- Resilience: 6/10
- Consistency: 7/10
- Interaction: 6/10
Rating Justification:
This deck sits firmly in the optimized casual range, showing more refinement than a typical precon but not quite reaching the speed and consistency of focused competitive decks. The mana base is well-constructed with fetch lands and shock lands, and the inclusion of premium interaction and protection pieces elevates it above basic casual builds. However, the tribal strategy and reliance on creature-based gameplay keeps it from competing with higher-powered decks that can win earlier or establish stronger control positions.
Final power level rating: 5.5 - 6.0
