Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a Gates tribal land-combo deck built around Maze's End. The commander, The Wandering Minstrel, is not a real engine: its Town-related abilities are dead because the deck contains no Towns. It is included for the static 'lands you control enter untapped,' which smooths the many tapped Guildgates and lets the deck win the turn Reshape the Earth or Through the Forest Gate resolves. The primary plan is to ramp through land-tutor spells and extra-land effects, assemble ten differently named Gates, then activate Maze's End. If that line falters, land-matter creatures like Lumra, Braulios, and Beanstalk Giant provide a large but unexceptional combat backup.
