Deck overview

This deck is a focused Mardu Equipment Voltron strategy helmed by Syr Gwyn, Hero of Ashvale. The deck's primary goal is to deploy cheap Knight and artificer enablers, search out high-impact Equipment with its dense tutor suite, and bypass hefty equip costs using Syr Gwyn's {0} equip ability or enablers like Puresteel Paladin, Forge Anew, and Ardenn, Intrepid Archaeologist. Once equipped with heavy armaments like Colossus Hammer, Kaldra Compleat, or the Sword cycle, the deck attacks with massive, evasive threats that draw cards and eliminate opponents across consecutive combat steps. A versatile Sunforger toolbox provides instant-speed spot removal and complete board protection via Teferi's Protection, Akroma's Will, and Boros Charm. The deck remains highly independent of its commander, easily closing out games through redundant legendary carriers like Balan, Wandering Knight and Kellan, the Fae-Blooded.
