Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Venat, Heart of Hydaelyn commands a mono-white midrange strategy focused on legendary synergies, lifegain triggers, and aggressive counter scaling. The front face converts legendary permanents into steady card draw, keeping your hand replenished as you build a commanding board presence. Once an established squad of creatures is assembled, high-impact engines like Archangel of Thune, Heliod, Sun-Crowned, and Nykthos Paragon rapidly distribute +1/+1 counters across your battlefield. The deck closes out games through overwhelming aerial and ground combat damage empowered by Akroma's Will or Bond of Discipline, alongside an alternate win condition in Test of Endurance.
