Owen Grady, Raptor Trainer

Gameplan

Owen Grady leads a Gruul Dinosaur tribal deck that goes wide and tall with prehistoric beaters, using his tap ability to bolt evasion and haste counters onto your biggest threats. Fetch his partner Blue, Loyal Raptor for early aggression and counter synergy, then snowball into hasty trampling Dinosaurs that close games fast. You ramp aggressively, deploy dinos, and turn each combat into a counter-fueled beatdown.

Key Cards

• Blue, Loyal Raptor — Owen's partner provides an aggressive early body and rewards you for stacking counters across your team.
• Gishath, Sun's Avatar — Top-end Dinosaur payoff that cascades into more dinos and benefits hugely from Owen's haste counters.
• Zacama, Primal Calamity — A game-ending Dinosaur that, given haste from Owen, can immediately remove threats and dominate.
• Regisaur Alpha — Grants haste to your whole Dinosaur team, amplifying Owen's evasion counters into lethal swings.
• Cavern of Souls — Protects your key Dinosaurs from counterspells while fixing mana for the tribe.
• Forerunner of the Empire — Tutors Dinosaurs to the top and enables damage-based board control synergies.

Upgrade Path

Add efficient ramp like Cultivate, Rampant Growth, and mana dorks to deploy threats faster, plus tutors such as Worldly Tutor and Fierce Empath to find your bombs. Improve resilience with Heroic Intervention and a few targeted removal spells like Beast Within, and consider an overrun finisher like Craterhoof Behemoth or Pathbreaker Ibex to convert your wide boards into one-shot kills.
