Legendary Creature — Beast
Vigilance, deathtouch, haste Questing Beast can't be blocked by creatures with power 2 or less. Combat damage that would be dealt by creatures you control can't be prevented. Whenever Questing Beast deals combat damage to an opponent, it deals that much damage to target planeswalker that player controls.
“4/4 haste beater that breaks through small blockers and nukes planeswalkers.”
Questing Beast is a straightforward green beater that punishes opponents for sitting behind small blockers and planeswalkers. You're leveraging a 4/4 with vigilance and haste that deals unavoidable combat damage, then ricochets that same damage at enemy planeswalkers. The core gameplan is turning Questing Beast into an evasive threat that pressures multiple angles at once—it swings through most token armies, dodges chump blockers, and forces opponents to deal with it immediately or lose their walkers.
To maximize this, you want redundant evasion effects (Goblin Bombardment, Embercleave), ways to pump the Beast into the red zone faster (Aspect of Hydra, Vines of Vastwood), and cards that trigger on combat damage to amplify the pressure. Green naturally gives you ramp to cast it early and protect it from removal. The deck wins by dealing 20 commander damage through unblockable hits, often while simultaneously dismantling planeswalker strategies that slower decks rely on.
This is a no-frills aggro deck—lean into creature synergies, one-shot pump effects, and any cards that care about combat or unblockable damage. You're not building a complicated engine; you're just making sure Questing Beast connects every turn and punishes planeswalker-heavy metas.

Skip the Embercleaves—use Aspect of Hydra, Branchlash Warrior, and Collected Company as budget alternatives for pressure and reach.
