A Red-Green (Gruul) Legends deck in MTG Arena’s Explorer format is an aggressive, midrange strategy that leverages powerful legendary creatures to dominate the board. The deck combines red’s explosive aggression with green’s ramp and resilience, allowing it to apply constant pressure.

There are currently a lot of Legends creatures of the Gruul colors that can synergize well in the aggro strategy. Key cards often include Halana and Alena, Partners to boost other creatures, Ruby, Daring Tracker, and Domri, Anarch of Bolas for mana acceleration. With access to legendary creatures that synergize well with each other, the deck can generate overwhelming board presence while maintaining efficient resource management.

The strength of the deck lies in its ability to curve out efficiently, using mana advantage provided by Green to accelerate into powerful threats ahead of schedule. Unlike traditional Gruul aggro decks, which rely on wide board states, the Legends build focuses on individual creatures with high impact, often making them difficult to remove effectively due to cards like Thrun, Breaker of Silence, or hard-hitters like Anzrag, the Quake-Mole.

The inclusion of Boseiju, Who Endures, and Sokenzan, Crucible of Defiance offers additional utility, ensuring the deck can interact with opposing threats while keeping up the tempo. By leveraging the natural synergy between legendary creatures and the aggressive efficiency of Gruul, the deck thrives in a format that rewards both aggression and resilience.
