Overview:
A token-focused deck led by Ghired, Conclave Exile that aims to create powerful creature tokens and multiply them through populate effects, creating an overwhelming board presence through token copies of high-value creatures.
Primer:
The deck's primary strategy revolves around creating valuable creature tokens and using populate effects to duplicate them. Early game focuses on ramping and setting up token generators. Mid-game involves creating powerful tokens with cards like Desolation Twin or Giant Adephage, then using populate effects to multiply them. The deck can generate significant card advantage through token-based draw effects like Elemental Bond and Garruk's Packleader. Combat damage becomes the primary win condition, supported by various token anthem effects and combat tricks.
Weaknesses:
The deck is vulnerable to board wipes and mass removal, which can severely set back the token strategy. It relies heavily on having creatures stick on the battlefield to enable populate effects, making it susceptible to heavy control strategies. The deck can also struggle against faster combo decks that can win before it establishes its board presence.

Attribute Ratings:
- Speed: 4/10
- Resilience: 5/10
- Consistency: 5/10
- Interaction: 4/10
Rating Justification:
This deck operates at a casual-focused power level, with a clear strategy but relatively slow execution speed. While it can create impressive board states, it typically needs several turns to set up its engine and lacks the explosive speed of higher-powered decks. The interaction suite is modest, and the deck's resilience is somewhat limited by its reliance on creatures staying on the battlefield. When compared to higher-powered decks (5.5+), it lacks the consistent fast mana and efficient interaction package to compete. However, it performs well against other casual decks in its range.
Final power level rating: 4.5 - 5.0
