Life Wins!!! v2.0 aug26 by Baron_Buchanan

Format: Commander

Commander: Captain Sisay

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Captain Sisay leads a Selesnya lifegain deck that turns life totals into win conditions. The primary plan is to use Sisay's tap ability to find legendary finishers, especially Felidar Sovereign, then protect the life total until the upkeep trigger wins. Secondary paths include Test of Endurance, Approach of the Second Sun, Aetherflux Reservoir, and Angel of Destiny combat. Heliod, Sun-Crowned plus Cleric Class can create an infinite +1/+1 counter loop with Triskelion or Walking Ballista if drawn. The deck also generates value from legendary permanents, planeswalkers, and token makers. There is no hidden commander; Sisay is the tutor engine and the deck is built around her ability to fetch legendary answers and threats.
