Some cards, like Great Tusk [Temporal Forces] can lead to an alternative win condition like decking your opponent out, and Pokmon, like Walking Wake, are only there to be discarded
For example, if a creature has toxic 2 and gains toxic 1 due to another effect, combat damage that creature deals to a player will cause that player to get 3 poison counters
I like the flavour text noting that those winged helmets are taken off in actual war, and are only worn for pageants
So I grabbed the Gen 2 version instead, just in case
This deck leans into this strategy, offering ways to sacrifice creatures to draw cards, card advantage and life drain for going wide, and X-spells that generate plenty of token creatures
