Strategy
Ojutai, Soul of Winter is a flying, vigilant Dragon that locks down your opponents' best threats whenever your Dragons attack. The core gameplan is to build a dragon-focused deck that generates value from attacking while simultaneously disrupting opponents' strategies. Each attack with Ojutai taps down a key permanent—a problematic mana rock, a creature blocker, or a utility piece—and keeps it tapped for a full turn cycle. This creates a soft-lock where opponents gradually fall behind as their resources become unavailable.
The deck wins through a combination of dragon combat damage and tempo advantage. You're not looking for a quick kill, but rather a steady stream of pressure while controlling the board. Support Ojutai with other Dragons and evasive threats that benefit from the tempo you're building. Include cards that reward you for attacking or tapping permanents, and lean into Azorius's control elements to protect your board while you slowly overwhelm opponents through Dragon beats.
