Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Lord of the Nazgul helms a Dimir spell-slinger deck that turns every instant and sorcery into a 3/3 menace Wraith. The main game plan is to chain cheap spells and Nazgul, keep drawing via Ring tempts and magecraft, then cross the nine-Wraith threshold and attack with a 9/9 army. Backup lines come from Talrand, Shark Typhoon, and Sauron, the Necromancer; Living Death and The Scarab God add a grindy recursion angle. Interaction is mostly creature removal plus a few counterspells. The deck aims for a two-wave combat kill rather than an infinite combo, and its timing depends on assembling enough Wraiths before the boost turn.
