4. Vampires

At worst you're gaining life and blocking. At best you're overwhelming them on the board and running out of reach.

Vampires Example Decklist

Black/White Vampires is one of the best strategies available due to versatility. These strategies often involve a number of low-costed aggressors followed by a number of higher-costed lords and powerhouse creatures. Token generation and team buffs overwhelm your opponent. Black and white have the best removal suite available, making it easy to protect yourself.

Your early game plays well into your late game in a strategy like this. Your threats are more or less at parity with their peers at low costs but offer significant upside as soon as you play another creature. Legion’s Landing, Forerunner of the Legion, and Elanda the Dusk Rose all help to make a huge army of vampires. Legion Lieutenant, Radiant Destiny, and Sanctum Seeker all take those vampires and increase their value substantially. This build creates a synergistic network of cards that will help you break through any board stall.
