At its heart, the deck revolves around mutating creatures, making the best use of Illuna's ability to add additional traits to your creatures or find powerful creatures from your library. You’ll also use mana ramp, synergies, and big creatures to crush your opponents.

Key Themes and Strategies: Mutations and Synergy: Illuna, Apex of Wishes offers a fun and powerful mutation mechanic where creatures can gain abilities and enhanced power. Cards like Gemrazer and Migratory Greathorn allow you to mutate creatures, adding different effects to the battlefield. Illuna’s ability to find huge creatures from your library makes mutations even more impactful, enabling you to bring out your best creatures with added abilities, such as flying or hexproof.

Big Creatures, Big Impact: With creatures like Ghalta, Primal Hunger, Blightsteel Colossus, Wurmcoil Engine, and Titanoth Rex, the deck ramps up quickly to big creatures that dominate the battlefield. Cards like Genesis Ultimatum and Illuna help ensure you’ll have an arsenal of creatures to smash through opponents.

Ramp and Card Draw: You’ll need to build momentum early, and that’s where ramp cards like Cultivate, Farseek, Growth Spiral, and Nissa’s Pilgrimage come in. These allow you to quickly get to your big creatures and landfall synergies. You’ll also have tools for card advantage with Harmonize, Rhystic Study, and Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, ensuring you stay ahead on resources.

Creature Synergies: Creatures like Scute Swarm, Migratory Greathorn, and Porcuparrot help create synergy with mutations and ramping out large creatures. The deck includes several creatures with mutate, which help you gain additional effects when creatures enter the battlefield or when mutations trigger.

Combat Power and Protection: You’ll be adding key protective tools with cards like Akroma’s Memorial, Swiftfoot Boots, and Solemn Simulacrum to ensure that your creatures are protected and ready for battle. Buffing your creatures with Akroma’s Memorial will also give your deck much-needed haste, flying, and vigilance for those bigger creatures that will storm the battlefield.

Powerful Effects with Mutate: Cards like Gemrazer, Lorescale Coatl, Dreamtail Heron, and Glowstone Recluse are all designed to work with the mutate mechanic. They can help you take advantage of various abilities, such as destroying artifacts/enchantments, dealing extra damage, or gaining card advantage through their mutations.
