The decklist contains one planeswalker, 32 creatures, six sorceries, eight instants, eight artifacts, ten enchantments, and 34 lands. Since the deck is heavily creature-focused, they make up most of the deck, while the rest is mostly support cards for creature⭕s and counters.

Key Cards

Eshki, Temur's Roar

MTG Eshki, Temur's Roar card with the art in the background.

The commander of the deck, Eshki, Temur's Roar is a creature that grows with every creature spell you cast (assuming it has more than four power). This slowly turns it into a massive threat as it starts getting loaded with counters, as most of the creatures in the deck have more than four power.

Eshki will trigger both effects if a creature has six or more power, as it 𒊎will meet the criteria for both of them♛.

Eshki's first effect plays into its second one, as its power will eventually cause big burn damage when you cast creatures with six or more power​​​​​​. This makes it even easier to close out games, especially i🦩f Eshki managed to stick around with a ton of counters on it (made easier with The Ozolith if it ever gets removed).

Animar, Soul Of Elements

MTG Animar, Soul of Elements card with the art in the background.

Your creatures tend to have high casting costs, as most creature that have high power do. This is where Animar, Soul of Elements helps out, as it can discount all your creature spells equal to its +1/+1 counters.

Animar, Soul of Elements acts as a backup commander for the deck. It has a similar effect to Eshki, but triggers off of any creature instead of ones with four or more power. It trades the burn damage 🦋on🎉 Eshki for general creature discounts, allowing you to cast creatures for far cheaper than normal.

The Ozolith

The deck has a ton of different ways to put counters on creatures. In some cases, it's the creatures themselves, while other cards can stick them on your creatures💃. That combined with counter doublers leads to many +1/+1 counters getting spread around your battlefield.

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Ozolith is a great artifact that helps to ensure those counters stick around, even if those creatures get removed. In some cases, you want your creatures with counters on them to die so that you can move them to The Ozolith then onto Eshki so it can deal even more burn dama๊ge with it.

Selvala, Heart Of The Wilds

Selvala, Heart of the Wilds card with the art in the background.

Selvala, Heart of the Wilds is a staple of decks that play large creatures, acting as the best mana dork available for Stompy decks like Eshki. The amount of mana it can tap for is equal to the highest power, so it will at bare minimum tap for two mana since it counts itself.

Selvala is also a part of an infinite combo with Temur Sabertooth and any permanent that grants a creature haste. This can lead to infinite mana and, in some cases, win the game if you have the right combination of permanen🔯ts on the battlefield. Here is how the combo works.

Prerequisites: Temur Sabertooth, Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, a💯nd any permanent that gives a creature haste. One green mana available. One creature with seven or more power on the battlefield. The combo will work if you have a creature with six power, but you wi🌊ll not get infinite mana.

Step 1: Activate Selvala for one green mana, adding at least four green mana and three mana 𒈔in any color.

Step 2: Activate ওTemur Sabertooth, bounciꦺng Selvala back to hand.

Step 3: Recast Selvala. The haste-granting permanent will allow you to use its effect ri𒊎ght away.

Step 4: Repeat steps 1-3.

Results: In🐟finite colored mana, infinite cast triggers, infinite enter the battlefield triggers, infinite burn damage if Terror of the P🌸eaks is on the battlefield.

How To Play The Deck

MTG Frostcliff Siege card with the art in the background.

An Eshki, Temur's Roar Commander deck wants you to constantly be casting creatures with high power, triggering Eshki's abilities while having a ton of threats on your battlefield. These threa🌜ts become even stronger when you give them haste with cards like ❀Rhythm of the Wild, Temur Ascendancy, or Surrak and Goreclaw on the battlefield.

The deck has multiple permanents that put +1/+1 counters on your permanents, so cards such as Ozolith, 𓂃the Shattered Spire, Branching Evolution, and H✨ardened Scales are very helpful in making your creatures even more threatening faster. So make sure to get them down early.

You want to get mana dorks on the battlefield as quickly as possible. The mana curve of an Eshki Temur Roar deck is rather high, so cards like Gwenna, Eyes of Gaea and Selvala, Heart of the Wilds are especially strong since they'll enable you to gꦫenerate more mana than they cost to cast. Permanents that discount creatu✅res are great to so you can cast multiple in a turn.

The primary win condition of the deck is winning through combat. Your creatures have high stats, and plenty of ways to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:give all of your creatures trample. This makes it easy to run over your opponents' creatures to get in for guaranteed damage. Games can go even quicker with haste enablers. On rarer occasions, you can win through burn damage both with Eshki and Terror of the Peaks.

The biggest downside of the deck is its speed. Since your creatures tend to cost a lot of mana, it can take a few turns to set up. As such, you'll be exposed to attacks early in the game, so you should expect to take some damage. Luckily, once you are set up you can quickly turn the game around, and deal large amounts of burst damage to even things out.
