Bart braamstruik by Ragnarogk

Format: Commander

Commander: Bello, Bard of the Brambles

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Bello, Bard of the Brambles is the deck's engine and payoff: during each of your turns he turns every 4+ mana non-Aura enchantment (and non-Equipment artifact) into a 4/4 Elemental with indestructible and haste, and each hit draws a card. The primary plan is to chain large enchantments-enchantress draw, token generators, damage doublers-into an army of hasty, indestructible attackers. Because Bello turns those same enchantments into attackers, the deck gets use from cards that would otherwise be pure value. A secondary line loops extra combats with Aggravated Assault and Nature's Will. There is no hidden commander; the single-faced commander is the whole build, so protecting and re-casting Bello is critical.
