Who's ready to get healthy?

Welcome to my experiment in how close I can get to needing algebra in a tabletop game. (The answer is very. Some of the interactions with this deck take a lot of math.)

Token Generation

This is by far the largest section, since a solid half of the nonland cards in this deck have to do with token generation. Some highlights include: Trostani's Summoner, which, when paired with Panharmonicon, creates 6 tokens and has you gain 36 life while Trostani is out; Darien, King of Kjeldor, who makes it impossible for you to die from combat damage, so long as you don't get knocked out in one shot; Mycoloth which just... god damn; and Secure the Wastes or White Sun's Zenith, which make a metric ton of little tokens.

Combos

Due to the casual nature of my playgroup, I've decided to not include very many combos in this deck. Earthcraft + Squirrel Nest is the only "efficient" combo in this deck.

Win Conditions

Win conditions are fairly straightforward: Swing out with more tokens than anyone can deal with, use Aetherflux Reservoir to blast someone to kingdom come, or just hope that nobody zaps your Felidar Sovereign before your next upkeep.

Weaknesses

Archfiend of Depravity. Holy god this thing just shuts this deck down entirely. Aside from that, combat funnels like Silent Arbiter, Dueling Grounds, etc. will make for tough times in the token factory. Control isn't an issue, since Dragonlord Dromoka is in this deck, but if she's not around, it'll be a bit of an issue. Boardwipes are possible to recover from, although it may take a turn or two to entirely recover.

This deck has probably induced more headaches in me than it really should have, but hey, you try figuring out all of the triggers involved when you have Archangel of Thune, Cathars' Crusade, Trostani, and Panharmonicon out at the same time!

Have fun with the deck! Feel free to suggest any improvements. Thanks for taking a look!
