Commander: Bilbo, Thief in the Night

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Bilbo, Thief in the Night is a mono-blue artifact-combo deck built around casting spells from the top of the library and the graveyard. The primary plan is to deploy Bilbo early, add a top-cast engine (Mystic Forge, Crystal Skull, Reality Chip, or Mm'menon), then loop Sensei's Divining Top with Fateful Discovery and Glaring Fleshraker to draw the deck and deal 1 damage per loop to each opponent. Secondary lines use Basalt Monolith + Forensic Gadgeteer, Dramatic Reversal + Isochron Scepter, or Hullbreaker/Valley loops to make infinite mana and sink it into Walking Ballista, Staff of Domination, or Aetherflux Reservoir. Bilbo acts as a cost reducer and graveyard recursion engine; there is no hidden commander.
