Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Mardu deck is a Knight-tribal Equipment deck. It uses Syr Gwyn, Hero of Ashvale's free equip-to-Knights ability and attack-draw trigger to fuel a fast aggressive board, then either wins through combat with boosted Knights or transitions to an infinite-combat Godo, Bandit Warlord plus Helm of the Host combination. Godo is effectively the hidden finisher; there is no double-faced commander. The interactive shell is genuinely deep, However, the mana base-only two actual lands-severely undermines every plan. Its lines are real, but they cannot run on air, making the deck's realistic ceiling far lower than its card quality suggests.
