Hunt A Killer by swestdahl

Format: Commander

Commander: Eloise, Nephalia Sleuth

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Eloise, Nephalia Sleuth is an artifact-token sacrifice deck built to use her investigate-on-death and surveil-on-sacrifice triggers as the main engine; there is no hidden commander. The primary plan is to generate a steady stream of Clues and other tokens, then convert them into cards and mana while Mirkwood Bats, Disciple of the Vault, Marionette Master, and Tezzeret turn every token death into damage. Secondary paths are the Tezzeret, Master of the Bridge affinity drain and Marionette Master/KCI burst. The deck wins by grinding into a six-piece one-turn loop with Academy Manufactor, Warren Soultrader, Retrofitter Foundry, and Krark-Clan Ironworks, using Eloise's death trigger to multiply tokens and end the game.
