Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Killian, Decisive Mentor is an Orzhov Aura-voltron deck that uses the commander's goad/tap trigger and attack-draw to generate tempo and cards. Games are won by chaining cheap Auras with Sram, Kor Spiritdancer, and Light-Paws (the de facto hidden commander), then making one evasive creature enormous with Ethereal Armor, All That Glitters, and Battle Mastery. Spirit Mantle and Gryff's Boon supply evasion; Ghostly Prison and Sphere of Safety buy time. A secondary plan uses Hallowed Haunting and Sigil of the Empty Throne to build a flying token army, while Replenish and Retether restore the whole engine after a wipe. The commander can be the best aura carrier, but the deck can also pivot to Light-Paws or another suited flyer.
