Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a three-colour toughness-matters combat deck led by Doran, Besieged by Time. The central plan is to deploy high-toughness creatures and then use one of the many "assign combat damage equal to toughness" enablers (Doran, the Siege Tower, Bedrock Tortoise, Ancient Lumberknot, etc.) to turn those walls into efficient attackers. The commander provides cost reduction for creatures with toughness > power and a combat pump, but the theme is heavily redundant in the 99. The deck aims to grind out a dominating board presence, draw cards through Beast Whisperer and Guardian Project, and finish with either an overwhelming swarm, the life-drain of Betor, Kin to All, or a massive Last March of the Ents into a full board. It has no infinite combos and relies entirely on incremental combat advantage.
