Ride the Landfall Wave
Tatyova, Benthic Druid rewards disciplined land drops with steady advantage. As a three mana plus color pair investment she turns each land you play into a two part engine that gains you life and replaces itself on the same turn. That makes her a reliable anchor in decks that plan multiple plays per turn or that tutor lands into play. From the commander seat she smooths resource curves and penalizes decks that overcommit to board aggression without addressing your steady card flow.
Play patterns to consider include prioritizing fetches and bounce lands to trigger landfall repeatedly and pairing her with value lands that enter untapped. The lore here is concise and fitting; she is a merfolk druid who treats the battlefield as tidal territory. Practical players will see Tatyova as a predictable payout for land synergy and a simple way to keep gas in hand while climbing incremental life totals.
