ANALYSIS

Overview:

A mutate-focused deck led by Otrimi, the Ever-Playful, aiming to create powerful mutate stacks while generating value through combat damage triggers and creature recursion. The deck includes several X-cost spells and hydras as alternate win conditions.

Primer:

The primary gameplan is to establish a strong mutate stack with Otrimi, the Ever-Playful and other mutate creatures, generating value through their triggers. Early game focuses on ramping and setting up mutate targets. Mid-game involves building mutate stacks and establishing board presence. The deck can win through commander damage with a large mutated creature or through alternative threats like hydras. Card advantage is generated through combat damage triggers and mutate abilities. Protection comes from cards like Propaganda and Silent Arbiter.

Weaknesses:

Heavy reliance on creatures makes the deck vulnerable to board wipes and targeted removal. The mutate strategy can lead to potential card disadvantage if the mutate stack is disrupted. The deck can struggle against faster, more aggressive strategies due to its relatively slow setup time.

Top 10 Most Impactful Cards:

  • Otrimi, the Ever-Playful
  • Archipelagore
  • Sawtusk Demolisher
  • Sol Ring
  • Arcane Signet
  • Beast Whisperer
  • Deadly Rollick
  • Propaganda
  • Silent Arbiter
  • Villainous Wealth

Attribute Ratings:

  • Speed: 4/10
  • Resilience: 5/10
  • Consistency: 4/10
  • Interaction: 6/10

Rating Justification:

This deck operates at a casual power level, with a clear strategy but relatively slow execution. While it includes some powerful interaction pieces and can generate significant value through mutate triggers, it lacks the fast mana and consistent early game presence needed for higher power levels. The deck would struggle against optimized builds but could hold its own against other casual decks. The inclusion of protection pieces and removal helps it survive, but the reliance on creature-based strategies keeps it firmly in the casual range.

Final power level rating: 4.0 - 4.5
