Catti-brie of Mithral Hall

Gameplan

Suit up Catti-brie with cheap Equipment, attack to stack +1/+1 counters equal to your gear count, then either connect for big commander damage or fling the counters as removal at blockers/attackers. She's a fast, mana-efficient Voltron threat in GW that doubles as a repeatable removal engine, snowballing counters every combat.

Key Cards

• Sword of the Animist — Cheap Equipment that adds to her attack-trigger counter count while ramping you for more gear.
• Hammer of Nazahn — Free auto-equip and indestructible keep Catti-brie safe while padding her Equipment count.
• Puresteel Paladin — With metalcraft you equip for free, letting you load up multiple Equipment in a single turn before combat.
• Sigarda's Aid — Flash in Equipment at instant speed and attach for free, ambushing blockers and spiking her counters.
• Doubling Season — Doubles every +1/+1 counter the attack trigger places, turning her into instant lethal and a huge damage source.
• Stoneforge Mystic — Tutors and cheats Equipment into play, accelerating your gear count and consistency.
• Swiftfoot Boots — Hexproof and haste protect your key threat and add another Equipment to the count.
• Branching Evolution — Counter doubler that supercharges both her size and the damage payload of her ability.

Upgrade Path

Add fast mana (Sol Ring, mana dorks) and free-equip enablers (Puresteel Paladin, Sigarda's Aid, Hammer of Nazahn) to deploy gear and attack the same turn. Layer in counter doublers (Doubling Season, Branching Evolution, Hardened Scales) and protection (Swiftfoot Boots, Heroic Intervention, Lightning Greaves) to make her resilient and explosive. Finish with a tutor package (Stoneforge Mystic, Steelshaper's Gift, Open the Armory) plus an overrun or extra-combat effect to close out games reliably.
