Game Plan

Early Game

Turns 1-2

Prioritize hitting land drops and hold up interaction. Answer the most threatening plays rather than developing proactively.

Mid Game

Turns 3-4

Start transitioning from pure reaction to building card advantage. Identify your path to a win condition while keeping answers open.

Late Game

Turn 5+

Deploy Hoverguard Sweepers and Verdant Force when the opponent's resources are exhausted. Keep interaction mana open even when winning — never tap out unnecessarily.
