It's been a while, but I've finished a new brew. A brew that's been on the stack for quite a while; ever since I got my launch promo Dragon Throne of Tarkir. Johan on the Throne. deckstats.net/decks/46179/93… #EDH #MTG

This deck wants to use Johan's Vigilance granting ability to rise above its budget ramshackle of tokens and mana Elves. Dragon Throne of Tarkir helps with that, granting at least +5/+5 to the team when activated. And activating after attackers are declared, means Vigilance too!

+5/+5 means we'll need some overdose in creatures, so we bring in token generation, besides some 14 elves that will ramp us. They aren't the biggest, baddest; but that's ok. We want to be janky until we turn the dial to kill.

Besides the janky creature base, we bring in 0 Draw. No card spells "draw a card" our card advantage comes from doing more with each card. Elves ramp & are bodies, cascade adds effects; a ton of cards pull double duty. And it aids our jank status.

Then landing a Glare of Subdual tapping down their board before swinging in, it doesn't matter our creatures can't go toe-to-toe. Overwhelming numbers will take our opponents down. Or not, then at least we had cheap fun playing 🤣 #EDH #MTG
