Strategy
Rocco, Cabaretti Caterer is a flexible toolbox tutor that rewards you for casting it with variable mana. The core idea is simple: you pay X mana, cast Rocco, and immediately search your library for any creature with that same mana value or less. This lets you hit whatever your deck needs in the moment—a blocker, a combo piece, a mana dork, or an evasive threat. The real power comes from chaining Rocco into the perfect creature for your situation while building a synergistic Naya (RGW) creature deck.
You'll want to abuse Rocco's tutor trigger as much as possible, which means playing cards that let you cast him repeatedly: blink effects like Ephemerate or Soulherder, recast outlets, or even just running plenty of ramp so you can cast him multiple times in a game. The deck naturally leans toward midrange creature beats, but you can pivot toward aristocrats (sacrifice synergies), token generation, or even Voltron-style +1/+1 counter builds depending on your meta. Every creature you tutor is a step closer to overwhelming your opponents with value and card advantage.

Key Synergies
Budget Build
Skip pricey tutors; Rocco IS your tutor. Use Cultivate, Three Visits, and Elvish Mystic instead of Gaea's Cradle effects to ramp into him repeatedly.
