Commander: The Council of Four

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Azorius group-hug deck uses The Council of Four as its main engine. You force extra draws for everyone with Howling Mine, Dictate of Kruphix, Kami of the Crescent Moon, Kwain and Geier Reach Sanitarium, then profit whenever any player draws a second card or casts a second spell. The Council draws cards and makes 2/2 Knights, while Alandra, Sky Dreamer, Detective of the Month, Homunculus Horde, Mischievous Mystic and Prince Imrahil add Drakes, Detectives and Faeries. Bard, King of Dale is the hidden commander and doubles both draws and tokens. You win by buffing the wide board with Flowering of the White Tree, Inspiring Leader and Intangible Virtue and attacking, with Psychosis Crawler and Ominous Seas as backup payoffs.
