ANALYSIS

Overview:

A Party-focused deck leveraging Burakos, Party Leader and Folk Hero to generate value through Treasure tokens and card draw, utilizing changelings and tribal synergies to maintain a full party consistently.

Primer:

This deck operates on multiple synergistic axes, primarily focusing on maintaining a full party to maximize the effectiveness of both commanders. Burakos, Party Leader generates Treasure tokens based on party size, while Folk Hero provides card advantage when casting tribal spells. The deck uses changelings strategically to fill missing party roles and maintain consistency.

The secondary strategy involves artifact synergies through Treasure tokens, using cards like Marionette Master and Ruthless Technomancer to convert these resources into various forms of advantage. The deck can win through combat damage, draining life through artifact sacrifices, or overwhelming card advantage through its party mechanics.

Weaknesses:

The deck is vulnerable to mass artifact removal, which can disrupt its Treasure-based economy. Graveyard hate can limit recursion options and weaken key pieces like Sevinne's Reclamation. The strategy can be somewhat commander-dependent, as many of the payoffs require maintaining a full party, which can be disrupted by targeted removal.

Top 10 Most Impactful Cards:

  • Maskwood Nexus
  • Marionette Master
  • Mirror Entity
  • Black Market Connections
  • Ruthless Technomancer
  • Squad Commander
  • Harper Recruiter
  • Archpriest of Iona
  • Coveted Prize
  • Adaptive Automaton

Attribute Ratings:

  • Speed: 5/10
  • Resilience: 6/10
  • Consistency: 7/10
  • Interaction: 6/10

Rating Justification:

This deck operates at a focused casual level, with enough synergy and interaction to be effective but not overwhelming. It can consistently execute its gameplan through redundant party pieces and changeling effects, but typically won't threaten wins before turn 8-9. While it has strong value engines, it lacks the explosive potential of higher-powered decks. The interaction suite is reasonable but not comprehensive enough for higher-power tables.

Final power level rating: 5.0 - 5.5
