Bilbo, Rings of Power by 312Panda

Format: Commander

Commander: Bilbo, Thief in the Night

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Bilbo, Thief in the Night runs a mono-blue artifact-density strategy. Bilbo cheapens spells cast outside the hand and reanimates one artifact, instant, or sorcery per combat, so the deck fills its graveyard early and uses Emry, Lier, and Mystic Forge to keep casting. Multiple cost reducers turn expensive artifacts into cheap ones; Ironheart's improvise pays for the big spells. The primary kill is Cyberdrive Awakener animating a large artifact board, often doubled by Ultron tokens, with Blightsteel Colossus as a one-shot backup. The deck grinds to a big flying turn rather than comboing, and weaknesses are centered on artifact and graveyard hate.
