Syr Faren, the Hengehammer

Gameplan

Drop Syr Faren on turn two and start attacking immediately, pumping another attacker while you flood the board with cheap creatures. Stack power buffs on Faren so his attack trigger gives a huge +X/+X, then push lethal commander damage or a wide alpha strike before opponents stabilize. This is a hyper-aggressive mono-green beatdown deck that races to end games by turn five or six.

Key Cards

• Rancor — Recurring +2/+0 and trample that boosts Faren's trigger and survives removal.
• Berserkers' Onslaught — Gives double strike so Faren and the pumped attacker hit twice for absurd damage.
• Garruk's Uprising — Trample plus a card draw whenever a big creature enters keeps the aggression refueled.
• The Great Henge — Cheap with Faren's power, ramps mana and draws cards to refill an empty hand.
• Shifting Ceratops — A resilient beater immune to blue interaction that loves Faren's pump.
• Skullclamp — Turns your sacrificed or chump-blocked small creatures into a steady card engine.

Upgrade Path

Add free or cheap power boosters and trample enablers (Rancor, Bloodthirster, Berserkers' Onslaught) plus haste sources like Lightning Greaves so Faren attacks the turn he lands. Improve resilience with protection (Heroic Intervention, Snakeskin Veil) and card advantage engines (The Great Henge, Beast Whisperer) to grind through removal. Top-end finishers like Craterhoof Behemoth and Triumph of the Hordes convert a wide board into instant kills.
