Aragorn, King of Gondor

Aragorn is a efficient threat that doubles as a political engine. Your core gameplan revolves around becoming (and staying) the monarch—which turns Aragorn into a evasion engine that can swing through blockers while you gain life. The lifelink and vigilance mean you're never really exposed, and attacking doesn't tap him out, so you can hold up interaction or activate abilities. You win by repeatedly attacking with Aragorn while the monarch triggers whittle opponents down, supported by other evasive creatures and unblockable effects. The deck rewards you for being aggressive but fair—you're not forcing combat through with tricks; you're making it mathematically impossible to block.

Build around other unblockable or hard-to-block threats that benefit from the monarchy mechanic. Cards that generate card advantage when you're monarch (like "Edric, Spymaster of Trest" effects or direct draw on attacks) turn your tempo advantage into real resources. Include some instant-speed interaction and evasion effects to protect Aragorn and ensure he connects. Since you're in three colors, mana fixing is important but manageable at a budget level.
