Deck Notes
Well, this is a surprising turn away from our usual fare. Of course, with the banning of Fable of the Mirror-Breaker, the old strategies had to change, so it’s nice to see a fresh take. Azorius doesn’t usually play an aggressive game, so this one probably snuck in under the radar. There’s no denying the power, however. Being able to make this many tokens is certainly not passive, though, so never try to anticipate your opponent based on their deck color.
