Commander: Be'lakor, the Dark Master

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Be'lakor, the Dark Master is both the deck's engine and its payoff. The primary plan is to reduce Demon costs with Herald of Slaanesh, Heartless Summoning, and Urza's Incubator, then resolve Be'lakor to draw cards and turn every subsequent Demon into a 6-damage trigger. Copy effects-Sakashima, Spark Double, Molten Echoes, Reflections of Littjara, and Rite of Replication-multiply Be'lakor's triggers into a one-turn kill, with Bloodthirster and other big Demons as backup beats. A secondary win uses Liliana's Contract once four differently named Demons exist. There is no hidden commander; Sakashima is a combo enabler, not a second general. The deck is a linear, tutor-assisted combo-value build that can grind if disrupted, but it is built to kill through trigger storm on turn seven.
