Hulkling, Young Avenger

Hulkling is a red shapeshifter that turns into whatever creature you need whenever you cast a noncreature spell. Your gameplan is to build a deck full of cheap spells—cantrips, artifact synergies, and removal—that trigger his copying ability repeatedly. Each spell lets you impersonate another creature on your board, turning your team into a constantly shifting army of powerful bodies. You win through combat damage by copying high-impact creatures (especially those with evasion, keywords, or enters-the-battlefield effects) while steadily chipping away with flying damage and combat tricks.

The deck runs light on creatures but heavy on noncreature spells that generate value: card draw, temporary buffs, equipment tutors, and mana acceleration. Red gives you access to wheels (like Hex Magic), equipment like Mjölnir and Vibranium Strike Gauntlets for damage ramp, and interaction. Hulkling's flying and 4/4 base make him a respectable threat on his own, but the real power comes from stacking him with whatever utility creatures you've assembled—then copying them turn after turn for maximum flexibility.
