About Marshaling the Troops

Marshaling the Troops, Sorcery, designed by Liu Shangying first released in May, 1999 in the set Portal Three Kingdoms. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 106.09.

Marshaling the Troops would be particularly beneficial in a green creature-heavy deck, especially those that focus on generating a large number of tokens or have many low-cost creatures that can remain untapped, such as a Selesnya (green/white) token strategy. While there are other cards that provide life gain, such as Ajani's Pridemate in conjunction with Soul Warden, or Cylian Elf for more aggressive strategies, Marshaling the Troops stands out for its ability to scale with the number of creatures you control, making it a solid choice in the right deck. It should see play in decks that can consistently maintain a board presence, as the life gain can help stabilize against aggressive opponents.
