Scarlet Witch, Wanda Maximoff

Scarlet Witch is a lean, efficient red menace machine that wants to come down early and force opponents to deal with her while you build a go-wide aggro strategy. Her menace evasion is deceptive—it's harder to block than it looks, especially when you're pumping her with equipment and +1/+1 counters. The deck uses cheap red spells, artifact synergies from the new Marvel set, and equipment to turn her into a evasive threat while your supporting creatures come online. You're not trying to combo or go infinite; you're applying consistent, mounting pressure that turns into commander damage or token swarm before opponents stabilize.

The Marvel Super Heroes set gives you tremendous support: equipment like Mjölnir and Vibranium Strike Gauntlets turn her into a real clock, while artifact-synergy cards like Swordsman's Steel and Armor Wars reward going wide with artifacts. Red's impulse-draw (Hex Magic, Vision of Love) keeps your hand full of threats. You'll also slot in teamwork-payoff cards like HULK SMASH! that scale with your board presence, and Plan enchantments if you lean into the madness engine. The menace keyword means you only need modest board presence to slip damage through—pair that with card draw and you're a threat nobody can ignore by turn four or five.
