The Commander
Myojin of Towering Might enters with an indestructible counter on it if you cast it from your hand.
Remove an indestructible counter from Myojin of Towering Might: Distribute eight +1/+1 counters among any number of target creatures you control. They gain trample until end of turn.
Guide
Gameplan
Ramp hard into your eight-mana Myojin, cast it from hand to bank the indestructible counter, then crack it to dump eight +1/+1 counters with trample for a one-sided alpha strike. Out of combat it's a vanilla 5/5, so the deck is really a green +1/+1 counters/big-creature midrange shell that uses Myojin as a payoff and counter-doubler target.
Strengths
- Eight counters plus trample can be a lethal swing on a single combat step, especially spread for evasion
- Indestructible counter makes the activation flexible and the body survives a board wipe once
- Mono-green gives access to the best ramp and the deepest counters/+1/+1 synergy package
- Plays well with counter doublers and proliferate to multiply both the activation and the indestructible counter
Weaknesses
- The activation is one-time unless you find ways to add more indestructible counters
- Eight mana is slow and easily disrupted; without ramp it arrives turn 6+
- Mono-green lacks interaction, card draw fixing, and protection against removal/counterspells
- If Myojin is exiled or bounced before activating, you lose the entire payoff
- Vanilla 5/5 with no built-in evasion or protection once the counter is spent
Key Cards
Upgrade Path
Add indestructible-counter and proliferate enablers like Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger-style ramp plus Doubling Season and Branching Evolution to multiply the eight counters into game-ending totals. Improve evasion and protection with Rogue's Passage, Heroic Intervention, and Inkshield, and lower your curve with strong ramp (Sol Ring, Cultivate, Nature's Lore, Carpet of Flowers) so Myojin lands faster. Finally, include reusable counter payoffs (Cathars' Crusade, The Ozolith) so the deck functions even without the one-shot activation.cling Season

Archetypes
- +1/+1 Counters — The activation seeds eight counters at once, fueling counter-matters payoffs and proliferate engines.
- Stompy / Big Creatures — Mono-green ramp into fat trampling threats that Myojin turns lethal in one swing.
- Ramp Midrange — The eight-mana cost rewards aggressive acceleration and mana doublers to deploy early.
- Voltron — Dumping all eight counters onto one trampling creature creates a commander-damage-style finisher.
