Marisi, Combat Nonsense

Math is for blockers, but math sucks. And since we're just friendly folks, let's stop our friends from having to do math by messing with their ability to block.

We're here to sneak some tiny evasive creatures past our opponents in order to goad their creatures so that they've got to make some unfortunate attacks. This will soften up our other opponents, as well as leave them open to continuing the cycle. And once all the shields are down, we swing in with some big beaters to finish the job.

Here's what we're trying to do:

1) Get in, hopefully get out

First we need to get some combat damage on our targets with Marisi, Breaker of the Coil out, and the more ways we can do that, the better. So a healthy number of cheap evasive (flying, shadow, unblockable, etc) creatures allow use to sneak through our opponents creatures to trigger our cat friend and set our opponents up for failure

• Champion of Lambholt: Prevents blocking and even grows into it's own threat
• Soltari Visionary: Shadow is a rare keyword, so it might as well be unblockable
• Gingerbrute: Secretly an all star

2) Seek advantage in the chaos

With people being forced to attack each other, we can take advantage of all the swinging to influence combat and continue to push people down

• Duelist's Heritage: That giant hydra isn't pointed at us, why not give it double strike?
• Gahiji, Honored One: As long as a creature isn't attacking us, it gets bigger
• Storm the Citadel: More damage, and some useful removal because we're hard to block

3) Presents!

Some decks aren't creature or combat focused, and they shouldn't be left out of the fun. So we have a few ways to give them creatures so they can participate

• Rite of the Raging Storm: People do not turn down a free attack if it's going away anway (and they can't point it at you anyway)
• Rampage of the Clans: Removes pesky threats and gives threats we can take advantage of
• Varchild, Betrayer of Kjeldor: Cruel, but effective

4) Steroids for the sneaky

You don't win games with small creature unless you have a lot of them or they have powerful effects. Neither of these really describe our deck, but we can pump those sneaky bastards to make them make a bit more of an impact

• Beastmaster Ascension: Kind of obvious
• Soltari Champion: Sneaky and inspiring, just what we like to see
• Gruul War Chant: Little bit of a buff, little bit of evasion. Very nice

5) Finish them

They're on the ropes, they've been punching each other for far too many turns now. The iron is hot, bust out the big hammers

• Savageborn Hydra: Dump some mana, hit em hard
• Giant Adephage: Gets out of control quick, and feeds into our buffs nicely
• Samut, Tyrant Smasher: Not a finisher herself, but allows us to swing with them immediately

With all these things moving, people will be forced to beat each other while you wait for the opportunity to finish people off.

Also worth noting:

• Blade of Selves + Hydra Omnivore is can be 24 damage to all your opponents if it gets through
• There's some hatebears in here to provide some protection/frustration, like Hushbringer, Kinjalli's Sunwing and The Wanderer
• You want to cast Rampage of the Clans before combat damage is dealt, resulting in goaded centaurs
