Dwarves by RBanger

Format: Commander

Commander: Bifur, Melodic Rider

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Bifur, Melodic Rider is a single-faced commander and the deck's engine; there is no hidden commander. The deck is a Boros Dwarf/Equipment beatdown that first turns on the storied condition with cheap legendaries, artifacts, and Sagas, then doubles Dwarf triggers with Bifur. It develops a wide team of Dwarves and tokens, draws through Folk Hero, Amber Gristle O'Maul, and Kili, equips Bifur or Hammers of Moradin with Anduril, and wins with a large double-strike combat step from War of the Last Alliance. The 33-land mana base is fine in colors because of 30 basics and three untapped duals, but needs early Treasure/ritual effects to speed up the six-mana commander.
