Deck Primer / Description
Wilson attacking as an ever-growing deathtouch/trample/indestructible makes it so that you can usually just keep attacking every turn regardless of what creatures they have out. Just keep attacking with Wilson until they're dead.
Turns 2 and 3 are almost always gonna be spent casting Wilson and Agent respectively. Fast mana can speed that up a turn and let you jam other spells in there too like going 1st turn Wilson into 2nd turn Agent and One With Nature or something.
Stax stuff like Worb, Tangle Wire, and Infernal Darkness can slow down the opponent while you keep attacking with Wilson.
Hatred is often a good card to tutor for early if you're fairly sure you'll have the mana to play it and without interaction from their side. Especially if fast mana would let you do something like:
1st turn: V. Tutor/Imperial Seal for Hatred
2nd turn: Wilson
3rd turn: Attack, Ritual, Hatred
Lure can be a fun way to wipe their board and possibly lock them out of creatures unless they can remove Wilson since Wilson would only have to assign 1 damage to each blocker to kill them and should survive every attack with indestructible. Ulvenwald Tracker can similiarly make it hard for opponents creatures to stay on board and is a good turn 1 or 3 play.
Damnation is a lil extra cool here since you can play it post combat after Wilson is Indestructible.
Just focus on attacking every turn with Wilson and keeping the opponent behind with removal, stax stuff, and messing with their lands. The instant hexproof/indestructible spells can make all the diff.
An average game might go something like:
Turn 1: Either nothing or some 1 mana spell
Turn 2: Wilson
Turn 3: Agent (Attack for 3)
Turn 4: Play a Stax piece or tutor for Hatred (Attack for 4)
Turn 5: Win with Hatred or hopefully slow them down or just be resilient enough to blockers and removal to win in the next 2 turns
An awesome game might go something like:
Turn 1: Tutor for Hatred
Turn 2: Wilson
Turn 3: Ritual or Mana Vault into Hatred
A ridiculous game might go something like:
Turn 1: Land, Mox Diamond, Wilson
Turn 2: Land, Ritual/Mana Vault, Hatred
