Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Ketramose, the New Dawn pilots an Orzhov exile-matters control-combo deck that weaponizes the command zone as a repeatable draw engine. The core loop is elegant: every time the deck exiles cards from graveyards or the battlefield on its own turn - via Bojuka Bog, Relic of Progenitus, Ghost Vacuum, Dauthi Voidwalker, Planar Void, or its blink spells - Ketramose converts that exile into a card drawn. The primary finish is combo: the Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward / Felidar Guardian-style blink loops and the Leonin Relic-Warder + Animate Dead / Necromancy reanimation loops generate arbitrarily large boards and, with Ketramose online, draw through the library. A dense Orzhov interaction shell - Path to Exile, Swords to Plowshares, Anguished Unmaking, Silence, Opposition Agent - keeps the table honest while tutors like Demonic Tutor and Vampiric Tutor find the kill pieces.
