Main Deck cards Xolatoyac, the Smiling Flood

Strategy

The Xolatoyac, the Smiling Flood Commander deck is a Simic (Green-Blue) deck focused on controlling the battlefield and growing its creatures throughout the game. The deck utilizes cards like Xolatoyac, the Smiling Flood, Vorel of the Hull Clade, and Primal Empathy to generate value by either doubling the counters on your creatures or drawing additional cards. One of the key strategies of the deck revolves around using cards like Stormtide Leviathan and Whelming Wave to control the board, making it difficult for opponents to attack you while you build up a powerful board presence. Cultivate, Rampant Growth, and Explore help ramp up your mana so you can play your more expensive threats early in the game. The good points of this deck include its ability to generate powerful creature synergies, its control elements that can disrupt opponents' plans, and its ability to grow its creatures to overwhelming sizes. However, the deck may struggle against aggressive decks that can quickly overwhelm you before you can establish your board presence. Additionally, the lack of direct removal spells may make it challenging to deal with certain threats on the battlefield. Overall, the Xolatoyac, the Smiling Flood deck offers a fun and interactive playstyle with a focus on creature-based strategies and controlling the game tempo.
