Samut wants a deck that plays cheap creatures and attacks from the first turns. It also works in a deck built around Humans, Tap / Untap Loops or Warriors.
Picked for what they do in Samut's deck. When two cards do the same job, the one with the lower comes first. All of them fit Samut's color identity.Mana ValueThe total amount of mana a card costs, all added up. A card costing two generic and one green has a mana value of three. Wizards renamed this from "converted mana cost" in 2021, so older cards and articles may still use the old name.Open the full glossary
Color identityEvery color of mana symbol on a card, in its cost and in its rules text. Your commander's color identity sets the limit for your whole deck: every other card has to fit inside it. A deck led by a green and white commander cannot play a card with any blue in its color identity.Open the full glossaryWRGPlayers write colors as letters: W for white, R for red, G for green.AggroAggro decks play cheap creatures early and attack every turn, trying to knock opponents out before their bigger plans come together.Open the Aggro pageHaste EnablerLets your creatures attack or use tap abilities the turn they arrive, instead of waiting out summoning sickness.
