Some token decks are swarm-themed, others go a combo route, some are just straight up aggro, while some play with shenanigans like sacrifice effects or Warp World. I mean, technically you can do it ( Clonessss), but why would you want to? Due to their multiplicity, most creature tokens are individually weaker, and even the strong ones tend to be fairly vanilla.īut in reality, token is more of a modifier to other deck themes than a theme unto itself. Tokens almost always are card advantage, due to their habit of coming in multiple bodies, and it’s easier to duplicate a card with a creature token than it is to duplicate a creature token with a card.
Creature tokens are some of the most interesting objects in Magic.
This week I want to dig a little deeper into token decks.
