Strategy
Dorothea is a flexible two-sided card that encourages a tempo-focused control strategy with a reanimation twist. On the front, she's a evasive flyer that puts pressure on opponents while setting up value. When she dies—either in combat or to removal—you flip her into an Aura that locks down a creature and draws you cards whenever that creature deals combat damage. This creates a soft-stax effect while generating card advantage, letting you control the board while staying ahead on resources.
The deck wants to protect Dorothea, trigger her death intentionally when valuable, and then use her backside to either neutralize dangerous threats or enhance your own creatures for extra value. You're playing a patient game: evasive creatures, defensive spells, and sacrifice outlets that let you cash in Dorothea at the right moment. Win through a mix of flying damage and grinding opponents out with card advantage—you don't need a fancy combo, just consistent pressure and smart resource management.
