pokemon trading card game battle deck TCG: EX - Houndoom play 60 Pokemon - Team Rocket's Mewtwo

The Frog has a smaller body at 1/1, but it can block flyers with reach and then give it deathtouch with 2 mana so if you have it untapped and ready, people might avoid attacking you with grounded or flying stuff too in order to not trade down with a 2 mana 1/1

This isn't even always an option should there be no creatures to exile

Lets see decks on the more expensive side

You can add in hexproof creatures and play a Voltron- / Bogles-style deck, head toward enchantment creatures like Courser of Kruphix with Kestia, the Cultivator leading the way, or go all-in on comboing off with Estrid, the Masked and The Chain Veil
