Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Bard, King of Dale leads a white-blue token and +1/+1 counter deck built around the commander's ability to double both card draws and token creation. The primary plan is to flood the board with Human Soldier tokens through Adeline, Horn of Gondor, and recruit triggers, then win with mass pump effects like Moonshaker Cavalry or stacked anthems. Secondary paths include the counter sub-theme via Rosie Cotton, Mikaeus, and Lae'zel, and a backup draw/anthem engine in Bard, Heir of Girion. The deck has moderate interaction (counterspells, board wipes, and targeted removal) and can recover from board wipes because token generation is repeatable.
