Character Background
Jo Grant reads as a compact, story-driven tempo/value piece: a 3/2 for {2}{W} that turns the historic cards in your hand (artifacts, legendaries, sagas) into repeatable cycling engines and grows herself whenever you cycle. That design pushes a midrange/tempo plan that converts card selection into a snowballing threat—early pressure with incremental value rather than all-in aggro or combo. Practically, build around cheap historic pieces and an equipment/artifact package (Hammer of Nazahn, Sword-type equipment) so you both have targets to keep in hand for cycling and things to cast later; include payoff cards that care about +1/+1 counters (e.g., Cathars’ Crusade) or ways to proliferate. In Commander, the “Doctor’s companion” clause invites a two-commander strategy: pair Jo with a Doctor commander that provides removal or card draw and use looting/cycling enablers to trigger Jo repeatedly, sculpting your hand while growing a resilient commander threat.
