Character Background
Arabella, Abandoned Doll reads like a perfect engine for a go‑wide token/value strategy: thematically she is the haunted plaything that converts every tiny companion into a pulse of damage and life, and mechanically she rewards swarms of low‑power bodies. Play her in RW token lists that flood the board with 1/1s and other creatures of power 2 or less—Dragon Fodder, Raise the Alarm and token doublers like Anointed Procession turn each attack into a meaningful life swing and incremental opponent damage—so she functions as both a tempo finisher and a repeatable value engine. Deckbuilding tip: prioritize reliable token producers and cheap evasive 1‑power creatures (fliers or creatures hidden behind Whispersilk Cloak) so Arabella can attack safely; avoid overbuffing your small creatures’ power with global +1/+1 effects that reduce X. In limited she’s an uncommon bomb; in constructed she anchors an aggressive midrange/token shell that wants to attack often and keep the board wide.
