Baldin, Century Herdmaster

Strategy
Baldin flips the normal damage equation by making creatures deal damage equal to their toughness instead of power. This means you want to build a deck full of creatures with high toughness and low power—walls, defenders, and utility creatures that normally can't attack effectively. When Baldin swings, you pump your entire team's toughness based on hand size, turning your defensive wall into an overwhelming offensive force. The deck plays like a patient midrange strategy that builds up a board of blockers, then converts them into attackers once you've drawn enough cards and assembled your team.
