Iroh, Firebending Instructor

Iroh is a lord for your attacking team, turning all your creatures into slightly better versions of themselves whenever you swing out. This makes him perfect for aggressive red decks that want to go wide with tokens or smaller creatures and punch through for damage. Your gameplan is straightforward: build a team of efficient attackers, suit them up with anthems and buff effects, and use Iroh's attack trigger to push damage over the top.

The beauty of Iroh is that he's cheap and efficient, so he slots naturally into tempo and token strategies without demanding too much setup. You're looking for creatures that either generate value when they attack (like goblin tokens or hasty creatures) or synergize with being buffed. Since Iroh rewards you for attacking every turn, you want to lean into that aggression and not be afraid to turn sideways early. The deck scales well from casual to competitive depending on what you fill around him.
