Strategy
Maester Seymour is a counter-pumping engine that turns your board into a growing army of threats. Every combat, he distributes his power as +1/+1 counters to another creature, which means the more you've grown Seymour, the faster your other creatures snowball. His Monstrosity ability scales with your entire counter infrastructure, letting you dump all that accumulation into a single explosive turn. The deck wants to build a wide board of creatures while Seymour steadily grows them, then attack for overwhelming combat damage once your army is large enough.
