Strategy
Pantlaza turns every Dinosaur that enters into a discover trigger equal to its toughness, which regularly means casting a five- or six-drop for free. This build maximises big-toughness Dinosaurs and ways to blink or recur them so the discover trigger fires as often as possible.
Early: Ramp hard. Rhythm of the Wild makes your Dinosaurs uncounterable and hasty, and the usual green acceleration gets Pantlaza down ahead of schedule.
Mid: Each Dinosaur that lands discovers into another threat, which often chains. Regisaur Alpha and Bronzebeak Foragers keep the chain going, while Cream of the Crop sets up your draws.
Late: Gishath, Sun Avatar, Zacama, Primal Calamity and Etali, Primal Storm are the payoff. Cryptic Gateway and From the Rubble put them onto the battlefield without paying full price.
Win conditions: Combat. A board of discovered Dinosaurs with haste and trample ends games in one or two attacks, and Gishath turns a single connection into several more Dinosaurs.
- Gishath, Sun Avatar - Turns one attack into a board of Dinosaurs
- Rhythm of the Wild - Haste and counter protection for the whole deck
- Cryptic Gateway - Cheats large Dinosaurs into play
- Etali, Primal Storm - Free spells from every opponent on attack
