Strategy

Ashling gives your Elementals evoke, then copies each nontoken Elemental you sacrifice. That turns evoke from a drawback into an engine: pay four, get the enter trigger, sacrifice it, and keep a hasty token copy anyway.

Early: Ramp and cheap value Elementals. Risen Reef is the strongest early engine in the deck, turning every Elemental into cards and lands.

Mid: Evoke large Elementals for four mana each. Mulldrifter, Shroudstomper and Greenwarden of Murasa all deliver their enter trigger and leave a token copy behind thanks to Ashling.

Late: Yarok, the Desecrated doubles every enter trigger, and Maelstrom Wanderer provides a huge burst. Regal Force and Grave Sifter refuel the hand for another round.

Win conditions: The token copies accumulate into a wide, hasty board. A single large evoke turn under Yarok usually generates enough value and damage to end the game.

  • Risen Reef - Turns every Elemental into cards and ramp
  • Yarok, the Desecrated - Doubles every enter-the-battlefield trigger
  • Mulldrifter - Cheap evoke target that leaves a body behind
  • Maelstrom Wanderer - Huge burst of free spells and haste
