  • 6 King's Guard 1
  • 4 3 Ninja Toad 1
  • 2 2 Gabrian Enchantment 3
  • 2 2 Sunken Tower 1
  • 24 5 Aurora's Dream 1
  • 3 2 Prophet of Tides 2
  • 4 1 Wood Elemental 2
  • 1 5 Forbidden Library 2
  • 3 2 Lore Thief 3
  • 4 4 Frogify 1
  • 4 1 Water Elemental 3
  • 2 1 Triton Sanctuary 2
  • 1 1 Shifting Tide 2
  • 2 2 Shamanic Dance 2
  • 3 2 Elderwood Embrace 3
  • 7 7 Dream Reaver 1

The Combo So this deck relies on the combo of buffing up a Ninja Toad with 2 of either Shamanic Dance or Elderwood Embrace, playing Gabrian Enchantment, then following it up with a Dream Reaver, then attacking with the toad for lethal. Due to the combo requiring a total of 17 mana at best, I have [Card=114]Aurora's Dream[/Card] just for extra card draw and also to make the combo easier to pull off.

How to play The deck relies on getting all of your required lands (2 forests and 7 lakes) and then moving lands to get a land within jumping range for the toad. Because of this, try to mulligan for Lore Thief or for either of the elementals. Also, mulliganning for a Triton Sanctuary or Forbidden Library helps you set up for the later stages of the game as you need to get your faeria and card draw early in the game. Once you get around a decent amount of lands and faeria, you can use Prophet of Tides, Sunken Tower and Shifting Tide to advance a lake up in jumping range.

Counters Pretty much every deck let's be real here This deck is not able to go against aggressive decks that well. No surprise here. However, if you get enough early drops, you can survive to where you can drop a sneaky Dream Reaver, then Gabrian Enchantment it for an easy lethal.

Final Thoughts This deck, while able to win a decent number of the time(at my pleb rank of 13), it is more about sending a message and nothing sends a better message then a 10/10 Ninja Frog lethal. Have fun playing this deck and if you have any questions, just ask me them and if I don't forget about this guide, I'll try to answer them.

Disclaimer I'm not responsible for causing you to lose games, this deck is really gimmicky so if you are trying to win, I'd recomend a different deck.
