Damn Dainel back at it again with the Dwarves by user2778349

Format: Commander

Commander: Dáin of the Ancient Halls

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a Boros Dwarf-tribal/Equipment hybrid helmed by Dain of the Ancient Halls. The plan is to deploy cheap Dwarves early, cast Dain with haste, and attack immediately - his attack trigger burns each opponent for the number of Dwarves you control. Meanwhile, a dense Equipment suite turns Dain into a commander-damage threat via Colossus Hammer and Embercleave, while auto-equip and free-equip effects from Sigarda's Aid, Forge Anew, Bruenor Battlehammer, and Puresteel Paladin let the deck rebuild through pricey equip costs. The Storied Dwarf legends (Balin, Loremaster, Bifur, Melodic Rider, Kili the Resourceful) add draw, doubled triggers, burn, and evasion of speed bumps. Magda, Brazen Outlaw is a secondary tutor engine that fetches Equipment directly. The deck wins through repeated combat pressure that chips all three opponents at once, with Akroma's Will as a finisher; there are no infinite combos.
