Choco! by Liquid

Format: Commander

Commander: Choco, Seeker of Paradise

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Choco, Seeker of Paradise pilots a Bant Birds-and-landfall deck. The primary plan is to deploy Birds, use Choco's attack trigger to chain extra lands out of the library, and convert each landfall into Bird tokens, counters, and card draw via Chocobo Racetrack, Felidar Retreat, Tatyova, and Traveling Chocobo. The deck wins by a wide, evasive Bird army, or occasionally by making Choco enormous and unblockable. Secondary paths are the +1/+1-counter package around Sazh Katzroy, The Earth Crystal, and Hardened Scales, and Kastral's combat reanimation/pump. Traveling Chocobo acts as the closest hidden commander, doubling every land/Bird trigger and turning small landfall steps into explosive turns.
