--- # Play Pattern ### Early Game - Play Soul Warden / Vanguard / Sacred Cat - Establish lifegain triggers - Drop Ajanis Pridemate - Start snowballing ### Mid Game - Play Ajani planeswalkers - Drop King of the Pride - Produce tokens (Warleader, Ocelot Pride) - Control key threats with burn ### Late Game - Flip Ajani - Use Bombardment + tokens for lethal - Overwhelm board with buffed Cats --- # Win Conditions - Overwhelming tribal combat damage - Massive Ajanis Pridemate swings - Token swarm + Impact Tremors - Sacrifice burn via Goblin Bombardment - Planeswalker ultimate from Ajani, Strength of the Pride --- # Overall Power Level In a typical Commander meta: - **Casual to mid-power (67/10)** - Strong at creature tables - Struggles in high-control or combo-heavy pods --- # Final Verdict This is a flavorful, cohesive **Boros Cat Lifegain Aggro deck** that: - Plays fast - Scales surprisingly well - Has multiple overlapping synergies - Feels very Ajani thematically Its explosive when unanswered, interactive enough to stay relevant, and extremely satisfying for players who love tribal aggression mixed with lifegain value
