Arasta of the Endless Web

Arasta of the Endless Web is a punishing spider that rewards you whenever your opponents cast instant or sorcery spells. Your gameplan is simple: play Arasta early, then sit back and generate a steady stream of 1/2 Spider tokens as your opponents interact with each other or try to remove your threats. Every spell they cast makes your board wider, turning their own answers against them. You're essentially getting free blockers and eventually enough bodies to turn sideways for lethal.

The deck leans into a midrange shell that's happy to block early while building up your spider army. Since you're in green, you'll want some acceleration to hit Arasta on turn 3-4, and a few cards that care about creature tokens or spider synergies. You're not trying to be aggressive on turn 2—you want to be the patient player who suddenly has ten flying blockers and a 3/5 menace threat. Arasta herself is resilient as an enchantment creature, making her hard to deal with permanently.
