Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Karlov of the Ghost Council leads an Orzhov life-gain deck that turns every incidental life trigger into an engine: +1/+1 counters for Karlov and allies, card draw, and opponent life loss. The primary plan is to outlast opponents through incremental advantage, amassing a huge commander with evasion and protection to close games via combat damage. Secondary paths include draining opponents with effects like Sanguine Bond and Exquisite Blood, overwhelming with creature tokens from Dawn of Hope and Lunar Convocation, and finishing with Aetherflux Reservoir. The commander doubles as a removal engine by exiling threats with his activated ability, and the deck's low curve and high density of lifegain triggers keep it resilient while grinding toward a decisive advantage.
