Commander: Baral, Chief of Compliance

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Baral, Chief of Compliance pilots a mono-blue combo-control deck. Baral cheapens every instant and sorcery by {1} and turns counterspells into card filtering, letting the deck dig toward its pieces while answering opponents. The primary plan is an infinite turn loop: Isochron Scepter imprinted with Narset's Reversal, then cast Nexus of Fate, copy it with the Scepter, and return Nexus to hand for endless extra turns. Backup lines include Panoptic Mirror exiling Time Warp and the Ghostly Flicker/Peregrine Drake/Archaeomancer mana loop. Jace, Wielder of Mysteries converts an empty library into victory. The commander is not double-faced, and no hidden commander exists; the deck is built around Baral's speed and the Scepter combo.
