Overview:
A token-focused Jeskai deck built around Kasla, the Broken Halo's convoke synergy, aiming to generate value through token creation and card draw while utilizing convoke spells for efficiency.
Primer:
The deck operates by establishing a token army through various generators like Kykar, Wind's Fury, The Locust God, and Elspeth, Sun's Champion. These tokens serve dual purposes: combat damage and helping cast convoke spells. Kasla, the Broken Halo rewards convoke casting with card advantage, while cards like Whirlwind of Thought provide additional draw power. The deck can win through either overwhelming token numbers or value-based attrition, with several anthem effects and token doublers to enhance the strategy.
Weaknesses:
The deck is vulnerable to board wipes and mass removal, which can severely disrupt both the token strategy and convoke capabilities. It relies heavily on creature-based strategies, making it susceptible to graveyard hate and creature removal. The mana base could be more optimized, potentially leading to color-fixing issues in crucial moments.

- Consistency: 6/10
- Interaction: 5/10
Rating Justification:
This deck operates at a casual-focused level, with a clear strategy but lacking the explosive power or consistency of higher-powered decks. While it can generate significant value through token creation and card draw, it typically needs several turns to establish a meaningful board presence. The interaction suite is modest but present, including removal and counterspells. The deck would struggle against optimized builds but could hold its own against other casual strategies, placing it firmly in the focused casual range.
Final power level rating: 4.5 - 5.0
