Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Y'shtola, Night's Blessed leads an Esper control strategy that converts defensive spells and high-value noncreature cards into steady life drain and card advantage. The deck controls the board through pillowfort enchantments, efficient removal, and symmetrical sweepers while establishing a card-draw engine. Enchanting Y'shtola with Curiosity or Ophidian Eye turns every noncreature spell with mana value 3 or greater into a massive multi-card draw trigger across three opponents. As the game develops, trigger doublers like Delney, Streetwise Lookout and Roaming Throne accelerate the burn clock. The deck closes out games by depleting opposing life totals through stacked drain triggers, Sheoldred, the Apocalypse punishments, or a game-ending Exsanguinate.
