Format: Commander

Commander: Anowon, the Ruin Thief

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Anowon, the Ruin Thief is the single-faced build-around: the deck floods the board with cheap, evasive Rogues, then uses his attack trigger to convert unblocked combat damage into mill and cards. Prowl spells such as Notorious Throng and Knowledge Exploitation reward that same combat step, while theft effects (Opposition Agent, Zareth San, Tinybones) turn milled cards into extra resources. The deck closes through a token extra turn, Inkfathom Witch burst damage, or one of two two-card infinite combos: Duskmantle Guildmage + Mindcrank and Sanguine Bond + Exquisite Blood. There is no hidden commander; Anowon's role is anthem, draw engine, and mill vector.
