Commander: Dogmeat, Ever Loyalcommander
Deck description
Scrappy Survivors is a Naya (red-green-white) Commander deck led by Dogmeat, Ever Loyal, blending graveyard value with a steady stream of modified attackers. Dogmeat refuels immediately by milling five and buying back a key Aura or Equipment, while every enchanted or equipped creature that swings turns into extra Junk tokens for impulse draw. That engine keeps land drops and threats flowing, letting cards like All That Glitters, Rancor, Behemoth Sledge, and Mantle of the Ancients turn even modest bodies into must-answer pressure. Games tend to move at a midrange pace: develop a board, suit up, attack, and grind through removal with recursion and card access from Junk. Interaction is present without being oppressive, featuring staples like Path to Exile, Chaos Warp, Blasphemous Act, and Heroic Intervention to protect a wide board or reset the table. Players who enjoy combat math, equipment management, and incremental advantage will find natural upgrade paths in faster mana, more efficient equipment tutors, and additional payoffs for artifacts and modified creatures.
