Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This is a Gruul beatdown deck helmed by Bello, Bard of the Brambles, which transforms every non-Equipment artifact and non-Aura enchantment with mana value 4 or greater into a 4/4 elemental creature with indestructible, haste, and a combat-damage draw trigger. The deck is built around a dense suite of high-MV vehicles, mana rocks, and enchantments that become a horde of hasty, resilient attackers. The primary win condition is overwhelming combat damage, amplified by damage doublers like Gratuitous Violence and Unnatural Growth, alongside trample-enablers like Garruk's Uprising. Secondary plans include recursion through Trailtracker Scout and incidental damage from Skysovereign, Consul Flagship and Rolling Hamsphere. The deck is heavily reliant on Bello to function, as without him the majority of its permanents are non-creatures.
