Legendary Creature — Human Soldier
When Siona enters, look at the top seven cards of your library. You may reveal an Aura card from among them and put it into your hand. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order. Whenever an Aura you control becomes attached to a creature you control, create a 1/1 white Human Soldier creature token.
“Token factory commander that spawns creatures each time an Aura attaches.”
Siona is all about turning your Aura suite into a token factory. When she enters, you tutor up an Aura from the top of your library, then every time you attach an Aura to a creature—whether it's Siona herself or another creature—you get a 1/1 Human Soldier token. The deck wants to load up on cheap Auras that generate value, then leverage that token production into a wide board that can either attack for lethal or fuel sacrifice synergies. You're essentially converting your Aura picks into an army.
The core gameplan revolves around enchanting creatures efficiently and repeatedly. Cards like Heliod, Sun-Crowned can pump your tokens while gaining life, Karametra tutors lands as you cast Auras, and totem armor effects like Umbra Mycohydrant protect your creatures while still triggering Siona's token ability. You'll often want cheap Auras that draw cards, give evasion, or pump power—each one a token alongside its regular benefit. Once you've built a modest board, you can pivot into overrun effects or sacrifice outlets to drain your opponents.
This is a creature-focused midrange deck that builds incrementally rather than explosively. You're not aiming for a single huge turn; instead, you're steadily growing your token army while your Auras provide utility and protection. Games tend to play out as a slow roll into inevitability, with the occasional explosive turn once you've assembled key pieces.
