Legendary Creature — Dog
Vigilance, trample If one or more +1/+1 counters would be put on Mowu, that many plus one +1/+1 counters are put on it instead.
“Double-dip counter growth to turn a loyal pup into an unstoppable commander.”
Mowu is a straightforward voltron engine that turns +1/+1 counter synergies into a massive threat. The deck wants to load counters onto Mowu while getting extra value from the doubling trigger—each counter that would go on Mowu becomes two instead, letting you grow your commander into one-shot territory quickly. You'll pair this with effects that repeatedly add counters (pump spells, proliferate, cards like Ozolith that move counters around) and other permanents that reward you for getting big, like Hardened Scales or Samut's Spring. The goal is to swing in for commander damage before opponents can stabilize, protected by Mowu's vigilance and trample.
This is a creature-focused green deck that doesn't need to go infinite or combo off—just lean into the counter theme and watch Mowu outpace the table. You'll run ramp to hit Mowu early, then a suite of +1/+1 counter payoffs and pump spells to close out the game. Cards that care about power growth (like Electryte or Bow of Nylea) also help you sink mana and create incremental advantages while pushing damage. The deck plays at a comfortable mid-power level and rewards you for staying on theme.
