I don’t intend to lean into the colorless nature of most scarecrows, since our general is itself a five-color creature and we rely so heavily on them. In constructing this deck, I took a lot of cues from Breya, Etherium Shaper and my own experience building around the eldrazi. To be entirely honest, getting removal into my deck is certainly a blindspot I develop while drawing most lists, so not having to worry about this go around was quite a relief. What has stuck with me so much over the last ten years is the unconventional way that the tribe is treated and the way this general allows for a very open-ended design with its removal package covered. Since first laying eyes on Reaper King, the scarecrow tribe has received a disproportionate amount of attention from me for the size and support it gets. Scarecrows date all the way back to The Dark, being seen once more in Portal Three Kingdoms, before a hiatus that lasted until Shadowmoor.

The power to destroy any permanent is a strong one, and this week we will be piloting a deck that is high on removal but low on conventional win conditions. This deck has been on my mind for the better part of the last five years, constantly on the edge of being built but never finding its voice. I had already spoken about spirits in my deck tech for Quintorius, Field Historian earlier this year, and I covered my love for werewolves in my last article-so I thought it would be fitting to take a look at an underappreciated scary tribe: the scarecrows of Magic. We have reached the height of Spooky Season, when any self-respecting content creator is bound to cover the topics of ghosts, werewolves, and other scary creatures.
