Format: Commander

Commander: Syr Gwyn, Hero of Ashvale

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Syr Gwyn is the engine and the primary threat: she draws a card each time an equipped creature attacks, and equipment in the deck equip Knights for {0}. The main plan is Knights plus Equipment: establish cheap Knights, attach a Sword or Hammer to one, and turn a single attack into lethal commander damage or poison. The secondary elimination path is Grafted Exoskeleton plus Chandra's Ignition, killing all opponents at once. The deck rebuilds through Haakon, Knights of the Cursed, and Knights Trial. There is no true hidden commander, but Haakon acts as the most relevant recursion piece in the 99.
