While the card doesn't look like much, it's surprisingly good in most matchups. Maybe the biggest sleeper in the deck is Depose // Deploy.

Basically, Hero of Precinct One is great at playing defense in the early game, quickly turns to offense after the board is stabilized, and sometimes picks up free wins when we have multiple copies in our opening hand. While it's not as exciting off the top of our deck in the late game, we can often cast it and immediately cast another multicolor spell to get a token and minimize the impact of our opponent's removal. If it sticks around for even a couple of turns, it generates a nearly overwhelming amount of value. Since our only non-multicolor card in our main deck is two copies of Lyra Dawnbringer, Hero of Precinct One is basically a must-answer threat on Turn 2.

Hero of Precinct One was every bit as good as we had hoped.

Basilica Bell-Haunt has to be one of the best cards against Mono-Red in the format, and when you toss in some extra lifegain from Lyra Dawnbringer, Dovin, Grand Arbiter, and Depose // Deploy, it feels like our deck is massively favored against perhaps the most popular deck in the best-of-one format.

Maybe the most impressive part of the deck is just how much it crushes aggro.

Esper Tempo felt great! While we know the deck works well in best-of-three, considering it managed to Top 8 a big paper tournament last week, it seems to also be great in best-of-one, as we managed to hit the maximum of seven wins pretty easily, only dropping one match to control along the way.

Let's get to the video and find out then, we'll talk more about the deck!

The main plan is to grind our opponent out of the game with some strange value from cards like Thief of Sanity, Basilica Bell-Haunt, and friends before winning eventually, either with our random creatures or by going wide with Hero of Precinct One tokens. Welcome to Goldfish Gladiators! Hero of Precinct One is a powerful Magic card, but is it powerful enough to be the centerpiece of an almost exclusively multicolor deck? That's what we're going to find out today! Last week during our Instant Deck Techs, we talked about an Esper Tempo list that drops Teferi, Hero of Dominaria altogether and instead looks to win with a motley crew of multicolored creatures, backed by some solid removal and Hero of Precinct One.
