Alela Lifegain TRYIBNG AGIN by picklechicken69

Format: Commander

Commander: Alela, Artful Provocateur

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Alela, Artful Provocateur is the engine of this Esper Faerie deck: every artifact or enchantment cast produces a flying Faerie, and her +1/+0 anthem turns the swarm into a clock. The primary plan is to flood the board with Faerie tokens, drain with Obyra and Rankle, then finish through combat anthems or a life-drain loop. The secondary path is a compact combo package-Exquisite Blood with Sanguine Bond, Starscape Cleric, or Vizkopa Guildmage-where any Faerie trigger or attack starts an infinite life-loss loop. Tempo pieces like Sower of Temptation and Mistbind Clique buy time. There is no hidden commander; the deck is built to maximize Alela's cast trigger.
