Strategy

The Trostani, Selesnya's Voice Commander deck is focused on creating a token army and gaining life to take advantage of Trostani's abilities. The strategy revolves around playing cards that generate tokens, such as Armada Wurm, Rampaging Baloths, Growing Ranks, and Second Harvest, to populate the battlefield quickly. Trostani's ability to gain life equal to the toughness of each creature you control encourages you to go wide with your token creatures. Cards like Soul Warden, Essence Warden, and Trostani herself help you gain life whenever creatures enter the battlefield, synergizing well with your token strategy. Selesnya Sanctuary and Fortified Village provide mana fixing, while Cultivate, Kodama's Reach, and Rampant Growth help ramp up your mana production to cast your bigger threats like Grove of the Guardian and Hour of Reckoning. One of the strengths of this deck is its ability to go wide with tokens and gain value from Trostani's lifegain ability. This can help you outlast opponents in the late game and overwhelm them with your army of creatures. Cards like Swords to Plowshares offer removal options while cards like Wayfaring Temple and Rhys the Redeemed can quickly grow in power with the number of tokens you have. However, one downside of this deck could be its vulnerability to board wipes since it heavily relies on having a wide board presence. Cards like Rootborn Defenses can provide some protection against mass removal, but you may struggle to recover if your board gets wiped multiple times. Overall, the Trostani, Selesnya's Voice deck offers a fun and synergistic playstyle focused on token generation and lifegain, with the potential to create a massive army of creatures and gain a substantial amount of life in the process.
