Strategy
W'Kabi is a generous token generator hiding in a humble 2/3 body. Every time you attack with your commander and control a high-impact artifact (mana value 4+), you're making 4/4 Rhino tokens with trample. This means you're turning a modest attack into a growing army while staying protected behind vigilance. The deck wants to ramp into artifacts early—especially ones that generate value or add evasion—then swing repeatedly to flood the board with Rhinos. You're building a stompy, creature-focused deck that turns mana investment into an unstoppable ground force.
