Dwarf Shenanigans by user8284560

Format: Commander

Commander: Dáin of the Ancient Halls

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Dain of the Ancient Halls is a Dwarf-tribal beatdown commander: the deck tries to put several Dwarves on the board, then attack with Dain so his haste triggers immediately count every Dwarf as damage to each opponent. Magda, Brazen Outlaw is the de-facto hidden engine, converting tapped Dwarves into Treasures and then tutoring artifacts or Dragons. The equipment package is the secondary plan, powered by Giott, Sram, Kili, and Armored Skyhunter. A final all-opponent burst from doubled Dain triggers, or an equipped Eivor attack, kills when a normal dwarf wave would not. The commander is not double-faced, so there is no second commander face to analyze.
