How it grades
Fundamentals 92/100. Plays like Tokens and Artifacts.
This reads as Tokens · Artifacts, built around Morska, Undersea Sleuth. Go wide: flood the board with cheap bodies, multiply them, then convert width into damage or value with anthems, drain triggers, and sacrifice payoffs. Board wipes are the great enemy, so rebuild speed and token-doublers that refill fast matter more than any single big creature. Its strongest fundamental is land count (37 lands. About 39 fits this curve for Tokens); the first thing to tighten is mana reliability: 85% of your spells arrive on time. Hornet Queen is the riskiest: its G cost is heavy for this mana base, so expect it several turns late.
