Durin's Day by MorektheGreat

Commander: Dáin of the Ancient Halls

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Dain of the Ancient Halls is a Dwarf-tribal commander who converts a wide board into a direct damage finisher: whenever he attacks, each opponent loses life equal to the number of Dwarves you control. The deck's primary line is to assemble a tall Dwarf team, protect it with equipment, and then multiply Dain's trigger with extra combat spells. The secondary, decisive line is the Combat Celebrant + Helm of the Host infinite-combat loop, which lets Dain trigger every combat until all opponents die. Equipment such as Mjolnir and Dwarven Mattock turns Dain into a resilient attacker, while storied payoffs like Balin and Bifur reward the deck's permanent-heavy board. The commander is build-around but not strictly required.
