Character Background

Attuma, Atlantean Warlord is built for value-forward tempo in Magic: the Gathering, turning a Merfolk board into steady card draw while upgrading your attackers. With {2}{U}{U}, he slots smoothly into midrange Merfolk lists that aim to curve out and keep pressure without overcommitting. His static anthem effect—other Merfolk get +1/+1—makes every subsequent Merfolk more threatening, which matters because his trigger draws cards whenever one or more Merfolk you control attack the player. To maximize that, prioritize a density of Merfolk that naturally want to attack, and consider deckbuilding around resilient, replaceable bodies so you can keep attacking even after removal. A strong synergy is pairing Attuma with “Merfolk-tribal” lords or cheap Merfolk that benefit from being numerous; you’ll both enlarge the team and trigger consistent draws. In practice, lead with establish-and-press turns: develop your board, then attack to convert tempo into ongoing resources.
