Hobbit Precon - Big Bird
deck The Lord of the Eagles
Aug 17, 2026
Flavor, power, and price are all balanced in this Hobbit Precon EDH deck featuring The Lord of the Eagles legend, surrounded by a beautifully diverse collection of creatures with a plethora of creature types spanning many of the classics of MTG. The commonality? They are all premium, high-power flyers who help quickly cast the avian alpha in efforts to get one over on the battlefield, and your opponents, with the naturally-evasive and massive commander's damage. Every creature in the deck is on-theme by either being a punchy flyer, or being accompanied by one on ETB. Flash is also fittingly themed-in to help keep mana open to react to casts and board states with counterspells/countercreatures and other instances of instants to disrupt opponent's plans and win-cons, as mono-blue should do! There is a splash of opponent-mill synergy and a bit of rogue/prowl synergy suitingly snuck in to boot. Care was taken while editing to ensure a fast and smooth mana-curve to maximize efficiency and speed, with focus on an consistent creature curve. Oh and, of course, curated card draw to keep the wind under our wings! *Expensive and "unfair" cards removed for flavor and $ cost: Consecrated Sphinx, Rhystic study, Wan Shi Tong, Librarian, Force of Will, Mana Drain...and a few more, you get it.
