Format: Commander

Commander: Raised by Giants and Baeloth Barrityl, Entertainer

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This deck pairs Baeloth Barrityl, Entertainer with the Background Raised by Giants, turning Baeloth into a 10/10 creature that goads every opposing creature with power less than 10-effectively the entire table. The primary strategy is to deploy the two commanders, establish a goad lock that forces opponents to attack each other, and generate Treasures from goaded creature deaths. These Treasures then fuel explosive extra-combat steps (Aggravated Assault, Seize the Day, Full Throttle, Genji Glove) to chain attacks and close out via commander damage or direct damage spread (Kediss, Emberclaw Familiar, Chandra's Ignition). The deck leans heavily on its land ramp package to reach the 10 total mana required for both commanders, and incorporates a modest protection suite to keep Baeloth on the battlefield.
