Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This deck is a classic Esper Aura Voltron strategy helmed by Zur the Enchanter. The primary game plan is to deploy Zur early, protect him with cheap equipment like Lightning Greaves, then use his attack trigger to tutor a selection of impactful auras with mana value 3 or less directly onto the battlefield. Key auras include Phyresis (infect for a 10-poison clock), Battle Mastery (double strike), Aqueous Form (unblockable), and All That Glitters (massive power boost). The deck leverages a deep suite of card-draw engines like Mesa Enchantress and Sram, Senior Edificer to fuel its hand, alongside a strong control package of countermagic and exile-based removal. Secondary win conditions include generating an army of flying tokens via Sigil of the Empty Throne and Archon of Sun's Grace, and recurring key pieces with Sun Titan. The deck is meticulously built to make Zur an unstoppable, evasive threat that closes games through commander damage or poison.
