What a Korvold, Fae-Cursed King deck wants
The plan the Forge derives for this commander: the roles it fills and how many of each.

- 11× Make creature tokens — a static anthem or a go-wide commander needs a board to be wide
- 8× A permanent whose value is in its enter-the-battlefield trigger — the payload a blink deck reuses
- 15× Put +1/+1 counters on creatures you control, or multiply the ones already there
- 5× Actually remove one problem permanent — preventing its damage is not removing it
- 1× Answer a whole board at once
- 9× Find the exact card the plan needs
