Decks designed around maximizing the activation of Polymorph or like abilities to "cheat" in creatures of higher CMC.
Probably hahah! I was just thinking about adding the Polymorph hub in that deck construction is different when trying to maximize the value you get from it, running few creatures as opposed to simply running a lot of big creatures and something to cheat it from hand. but I'll give that hub a look!

I kind of designed that hub to be pretty broad. Otherwise, each individual card could have gotten its own hub.

I get that! More of a catchall! Polymorph or Amulet decks is a term my playgroups use to describe those strategies! I've added the relevant decks with that tag, thanks!

If you're thinking of Commanders, Kykar, Wind's Fury is a solid place to go, since he's in the right colors (Red and Blue), provides tokens to target, and mana to fuel the spells.

I'm really considering just ... getting hubs to be removed from the site because everyone and their mother wants every card and mechanic to be its own hub and at that point we might as just browse through the space for that and have a more comprehensive deck search algorithm.

gavriel1136 definently agree! I'm actually taking a weird approach, going for a voltron polymorph gameplan. I'm using charix because I like the crab, but there are a lot of solid options including that! I'm thinking maybe even trying out some of the partner commander. All fun brews that should fit in the cheat category!

Femme_Fatale I'm new at posting on here, but a long time browser. I could see limiting the criteria for hubs. Honestly, the most useful ones I found were already suggested on the generic main one. Things like jank, voltron, etc. I'm not a coder by any stretch of the imagination, but I could see how watering down the search criteria with every name/hub/mechanic under the sun is counterintuitive for actually categorizing things. Wasn't my intention to do that with my suggestion, just curious! Thank you for the feedback!

The Creature Cheat hub exists right now, which generally covers Polymorph , Sneak Attack , Show and Tell , Quicksilver Amulet , and related effects. Does this one work for you?
