“Token army with first strike—attack-focused Hero Soldiers.”
Okoye is a token-generating engine that rewards you for attacking with your growing army. She enters as a 3/2 body that immediately makes two 1/1 Soldiers, and then all your attacking tokens get first strike—turning early chump blockers into real threats. Your gameplan is to rapidly assemble a wide board of cheap creatures and tokens, pump them with anthems and +1/+1 counters, and attack for steadily increasing damage. The first-strike ability is deceptive: it lets your tokens trade up with bigger blockers and smooths out combat math in your favor, while simultaneous token generators and anthem effects snowball into lethal commander damage or wide combat swings.
You'll want to focus on efficient token creation (especially from enter-the-battlefield triggers and Hero synergies in the new set), Equipment that scale with your board size, and white's classic anthem effects. Super-Soldier Serum and Avengers Assemble! slot in perfectly here—they pump your team and reward attacking, while new artifacts like Swordsman's Steel double down on Equipment synergy. Your mana base should lean on Hero lands like Avengers Tower to support Hero-focused plays, and you'll gradually convert your token army into an overwhelming threat that opponents can't block through.

Skip expensive dual lands early; use basics and colorless mana rocks like Marble Diamond or Mind Stone. Replace premium Equipment like Swordsman's Steel with cheaper alternatives like Icon of Ancestry or Batterskull.
