Legendary Creature — Mutant Ninja Turtle
Each creature you control with a counter on it can't be blocked by more than one creature. Whenever Michelangelo enters or attacks, create a Mutagen token. (It's an artifact with "{1}, {T}, Sacrifice this token: Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature. Activate only as a sorcery.")
“Evasive counter creatures with Mutagen token ramp engine.”
Michelangelo turns your creatures into evasive threats while generating a resource engine with Mutagen tokens. The core gameplan is to build a board of creatures, slap counters on them to make them unblockable (except by one creature), then punch through for damage while your Mutagens accumulate. You're essentially turning green's typical stompy strategy into something with more control—your opponent can't gang-block you, so each creature matters way more.
The deck wins by getting Michelangelo swinging early and often, generating Mutagens that fuel counter distribution across your team. Even a modest board of 2–3 creatures becomes a real problem when they can only be blocked by one creature each. You'll fill the deck with affordable creatures that benefit from counters (especially proliferate enablers or cards that like +1/+1 counters anyway), then use Mutagens as the steady counter pump. It's a tempo deck with a grind-game backup plan—if combat gets weird, your Mutagens keep your threats growing.

Skip pricey proliferate cards like Doubling Season and use Vivid Meadow lands or Grateful Apparition instead; budget beaters like Llanowar Elves and Drover of the Mighty work great.
