Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Alistair, the Brigadier commands a Bant historic deck that generates board presence from artifacts, legendary spells, and Sagas. The primary game plan develops a wide army of Soldier tokens alongside high-value historic permanents, culminating in an overwhelming combat step powered by Alistair's eight-mana team-buff attack trigger, Moonshaker Cavalry, or Displaced Dinosaurs turning everything into 7/7 threats. Secondarily, the list can assemble an infinite combo using Ashnod's Altar, Nim Deathmantle, and Myr Battlesphere to generate infinite mana, tokens, and direct burn or mill via Altar of Dementia. Strong interaction and card advantage engines keep the deck stable into the late game.
