Erkenbrand, Lord of Westfold

Erkenbrand is a lord that turns your Human army into a go-wide aggressive deck with built-in evasion through power boosts. Every time a Human enters the battlefield—whether it's a fresh recruit or a returning ally—your whole team gets a temporary pump that pushes damage through. The deck wants to flood the board with efficient Human creatures and use Erkenbrand's anthem effect to turn a wide team into lethal threats faster than your opponents expect.

Your core gameplan is to ramp into a critical mass of Humans, leveraging Erkenbrand's repeatable anthem triggers to create explosive turns where multiple creatures entering means multiple +1/+0 pumps. Cards that blink your Humans or flash them in let you trigger Erkenbrand repeatedly in a single turn, turning a "fair" board into a one-shot kill. You're looking for a mix of cheap efficient Humans, haste creatures to threaten immediately, and effects that create or recur Humans to maximize Erkenbrand's enters-the-battlefield trigger.
