Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is an Orzhov aristocrats/gain-drain deck helmed by Amalia Benavides Aguirre. The primary plan is to generate a loop of life gain and death triggers through small creatures, sacrifice outlets, and mass recursion spells. Blood Artist, Zulaport Cutthroat, and Cruel Celebrant drain opponents incrementally, while Living Death, Command the Dreadhorde, and Storm of Souls return entire boards for a single explosive turn. The commander's explore ability provides incremental value and can occasionally wipe the board if her power reaches exactly 20, but the deck does not rely on that line. Victory typically comes from stacking multiple drain effects and sacrificing a wave of creatures after a mass reanimation spell.
