Why people pick it You can print full custom decks at scale You can control the card stock/finish options they offer Its a common solution if you already have a full folder of art assets What you give up You do the prep

This archetype is resilient against spot removal like Pacifism but can really suffer against cards like Man-o-War and Court Hussar which provide value while dealing with a threat, and Deaths-Head Buzzard will completely wreck decks overly reliant on one toughness creatures (which the fastest aggro decks are going to be)

You might think this means you'll be idle for most of the game when it's not your turn, but you'll have plenty of creature abilities to manage that can be activated as needed to ensure your opponents don't forget you're sitting at the table
