Overview:
This is a Tymna/Thrasios deck focused on dealing combat damage with evasive creatures to generate card advantage and value, utilizing unblockable creatures and combat damage triggers to maintain consistent card draw and board presence.
Primer:
The deck's primary strategy revolves around deploying small, evasive creatures (particularly unblockable ones) to trigger Tymna's card draw ability while using Thrasios as a mana sink for additional value. The deck includes numerous creatures with evasive abilities like unblockable, shadow, and fear, supported by enchantments and effects that make combat more profitable through additional triggers and rewards for dealing combat damage.
The secondary strategy involves using the consistent card draw to find key pieces like Nature's Will, Cathars' Crusade, and Aura Shards to establish board control. The deck can pivot between aggressive combat and value generation, with commanders providing reliable card advantage throughout the game. The inclusion of efficient interaction and protection spells helps maintain board presence while disrupting opponents' strategies.
Weaknesses:
The deck is vulnerable to board wipes and mass removal, as it relies heavily on maintaining creature presence. It can struggle against heavy control strategies that prevent combat damage through fog effects or pillowfort strategies. The reliance on combat damage for card draw makes it susceptible to stax effects that prevent attacking or dealing damage.

Rating Justification:
This deck operates at a focused competitive level, with consistent card advantage and a well-tuned mana base supporting its strategy. While it can establish strong board positions and maintain card advantage, it typically needs several turns to set up its engine and doesn't present fast combo wins. The deck's interaction suite and ability to generate value puts it above casual builds, but it lacks the explosive speed of higher-powered decks. It would compete well against other 6.0-7.0 decks but would struggle against faster combo-oriented strategies.
Final power level rating: 6.5 - 7.0
