📖 How to build Otharri, Suns' Glory
Otharri, Suns' Glory is a five-mana flying, lifelink, haste Phoenix that rewards attacking every turn. Each attack gives you an experience counter, then creates a 2/2 red Rebel token tapped and attacking for each counter you have. The army grows with every swing, so the plan is to attack early, gain life through lifelink, and overwhelm the table. If Otharri dies, you can pay {2}{R}{W} and tap an untapped Rebel you control to return it from your graveyard, tapped.
Build around cheap Rebels, token makers, and ways to reuse the Phoenix. Extra Rebels help because the return ability needs an untapped one to tap. Graveyard fillers like Faithless Looting can help you dig for answers and keep the graveyard stocked with a card you want to return.
Watch the mana, since five mana to cast plus four more to recur is a significant commitment. Otharri must attack to gain counters, so it is exposed to blockers and removal on attack turns. Exile-based removal such as Swords to Plowshares or Path to Exile is especially dangerous, because an exiled Otharri can't be returned from the graveyard. Tapping your Rebels for attacks can also leave you without an untapped one to pay the return cost.
