Strategy
Overseer of Vault 76 is a quest-counter engine that rewards you for playing small creatures. Your game plan is to flood the board with low-power creatures—think X/1s, X/2s, and other utility bodies—and use them to rack up quest counters. Once you've accumulated enough counters, cash them in for a burst of power: pump your whole team, grant vigilance, and swing for lethal or chip damage.
The deck wants to be tempo-focused early on, deploying cheap creatures that either have relevant abilities or generate value when they enter. Cards that create tokens or recur small bodies are especially good, since they fuel the counter machine while maintaining board presence. Your win condition is straightforward: hit them in the face with an army of pumped, vigilant creatures. The deck peaks around turns 5–7 when you've built enough momentum to start cashing in counters for massive swings.
