Based on "Arahbo, Xenagos... for Cats EDH" by Spirits.

I adjusted it for use of a companion card. "Restrictions breed creativity." - Maro

Win-cons are infect beats and Squirrel Nest combo.

Strategies:

Infect Beats

Yo, just use the enablers. Grafted Exoskeleton/Triumph of the Hordes/Lost Leonin/Inkmoth Nexus

Eminence and Double Strike are the secret sauce.

Some cats only have 1 power so the Eminence trigger only get us to 4 overall. Kaheera, the Orphanguard helps a bit here.

Frondland Felidar and Kaheera,the Orphanguard is a nice little synergy if you have open mana but are facing blockers.

Squirrel Nest + Earthcraft

Play Squirrel Nest/Earthcraft and wait a turn.

Play Squirrel Nest/Earthcraft to make billions of squirrels and then use Gaea's Cradle for big green mana, sinking it into casting the commander, companion, and Finale of Devastation.

Play Squirrel Nest/Earthcraft

P.S. Nest is Squirrel Nest with Open the Armory

Avenger of Zendikar + Craterhoof Behemoth

Make the tokens and trample their face in.

Pro-tip: Use Eldritch Evolution on Avenger of Zendikar
