Jandor, Fortuned Traveler
Legendary Creature — Human Citizen

(Tap any number of other creatures you control with total power 2 or more: That Mount becomes saddled until end of turn. Saddle only as a sorcery.) Whenever a saddled creature you control attacks, it gets +2/+2 until end of turn. Draw a card. Create a Food token.

Strategy
Jandor turns your Beast, Camel, Horse, Elephant, and Wolf creatures into powerful mounts that reward you for attacking. The saddle mechanic lets you tap other creatures to make a mount saddled, then that saddled attacker gets +2/+2, draws you a card, and creates a Food token—that's a lot of value per swing. Your gameplan is to build a creature-heavy deck with lords and token generators, then systematically saddle and attack with your best threats while drawing cards and building a Food engine that can fuel late-game plays.
The deck wants to go wide with efficient creatures while staying focused on your chosen creature types. Early game, you're ramping and assembling bodies. Mid-game, you're attacking with growing threats and accumulating resources (cards and Food). Late game, you've either beaten down opponents with evasive, boosted creatures, or you've generated enough advantage through card draw and Food tokens to dominate. Jandor rewards going tall and wide simultaneously—each attack is a mini-engine that fills your hand and graveyard.
This is a midrange beatdown deck with aristocratic elements. You're not trying to go infinite, just leverage repeated attacks into card advantage and incremental damage until opponents fold.
