The Bestower by SubtleTransPanic

Commander: Gluntch, the Bestower

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Gluntch, the Bestower leads a political group-hug pillow-fort deck that hands opponents cards, counters, and Treasures to buy time. It hides three slow alternate wins behind the gifts: The Millennium Calendar, Helix Pinnacle, and Approach of the Second Sun. While opponents draw extra cards from Font of Mythos, Howling Mine, and Rites of Flourishing, you tax attacks with Ghostly Prison, Windborn Muse, Crawlspace, and Baird, and protect with Fog effects and Teferi's Protection. Smothering Tithe and mana doublers turn opponent draw into mana for the alt wins. Seedborn Muse and mana doublers accelerate the clock, but the deck has no infinite combo and wins only after a long setup.
