Bear with me here by user7738446

Format: Commander

Commander: Ayula, Queen Among Bears

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Ayula is the card-advantage engine and removal suite: every Bear that enters lets the deck either grow the board or fight a blocker. The primary plan is to flood the battlefield with cheap Bears, use lords like Beorn, Goreclaw, and Surrak and Goreclaw to make them trampling threats, then finish with a mass pump spell. The secondary plan is token generation through Ayula's Influence, Grizzly Fate, and Mother Bear, which keeps the engine fed after wipes. There is no hidden commander; the deck is built around Ayula's trigger, and the one DFC in the 99 simply provides an extra land drop and a solid Bear body.
