Strategy
Obeka is all about turning extra upkeep steps into value. Every time she connects in combat, you get extra turns' worth of upkeep triggers—meaning repeated activation of abilities like planeswalkers, permanents with triggered abilities, or recurring effects you can stack up. The dream is to attack multiple times in a game, racking up several bonus upkeeps that let your engines go haywire.
Your gameplan is to make Obeka evasive and keep swinging. Menace helps her get through, but you'll want to add unblockable effects or just make her bigger. Meanwhile, you're loading your deck with cards that do powerful things on upkeep: planeswalkers that tick up, creatures with upkeep-triggered abilities, or effects like Sunburst that benefit from repeated phases. The deck plays like a midrange tempo deck that suddenly explodes into card advantage and resource generation once you've dealt combat damage a couple of times.

Key Synergies
Budget Build
Skip expensive planeswalkers; budget alternatives like Spark Thoughtcaster and Teferi, Wry Neuromancer still trigger upkeeps. Use evasion creatures like Invisible Stalker instead of pricey protection spells.
