Commander: The Madcap Jester

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a Grixis theft-value deck led by The Madcap Jester. The primary plan is to attack with the Jester to exile the top card of each opponent's library and then cast those cards until the end of your next turn with any mana. Secondary paths use independent thieves that exile and cast on their own - Etali, Primal Storm, Thief of Sanity, Tasha, the Witch Queen, Prosper, Tome-Bound and Umbris, Fear Manifest. The Jester is the main engine and enabler, not a combo piece. Tasha, the Witch Queen acts as a hidden commander, providing draw, Demon tokens when you cast stolen spells, and a free cast from exile.
