What a Vorosh, the Hunter deck wants
The plan the Forge derives for this commander: the roles it fills and how many of each.
- 12× Make the commander connect — a body that never deals combat damage never triggers
- 8× Evasion that does NOT target or attach — for a commander your own auras and equipment cannot legally touch
- 19× 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
- 2× Answer a spell or ability before it resolves
- 9× Find the exact card the plan needs
- 7× Refill your hand
- 2× Keep a permanent you control alive through removal
