Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a Grixis Villain-tribal value deck helmed by the transforming Norman Osborn // Green Goblin. The front face is a cheap, unblockable connive engine that fills the graveyard while growing; the back face turns that graveyard into a second hand, letting you cast spells from it for {2} less and exploit the mayhem mechanic on anything you discarded. The deck's primary path to victory is grinding out a wide Villain board - via token generators like Madame Hydra and Crimson Cowl, Master of Evil - pumped by anthems like Coat of Arms and The Masters of Evil, then closing with a chain of extra turns from Walk the Aeons, Temporal Mastery, Alchemist's Gambit, and Kang the Conqueror. A Bolas planeswalker subtheme (Nicol Bolas, God-Pharaoh, Nicol Bolas, Dragon-God, Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker) provides alternate finishers and control, while a deep recursion package (Living Death, Behold the Sinister Six!, Thunderbolts Conspiracy) keeps the board coming back.
