Shagrat, Loot Bearer

Shagrat wants to be an Equipment-hungry aggressor that turns your gear into a growing Orc army. Every time he attacks, you grab an Equipment from your graveyard or battlefield and slap it on him, then amass Orcs based on how many pieces he's carrying. This creates a snowball effect: more Equipment means bigger amass triggers, which means a bigger Orc token that keeps growing each turn. Your win condition is swinging with an increasingly massive Orc army while Shagrat himself becomes a flying, double-strike, or evasion threat depending on what Equipment you're attaching.

The deck is all about cheap Equipment that have high impact—things like Embercleave, Colossus Hammer, and Shadowspear that either pump hard or give utility like evasion and protection. You'll also want repeatable ways to move Equipment around or recur them from the graveyard, turning every attack into multiple triggers. Cards that create tokens or grant haste help you pressure early, while sacrifice outlets and token synergies give you alternative lines when needed. The Orc army token becomes your main threat, and Shagrat is the enabler that feeds it.
