time to aura farm by Zako
Format: Commander
Commander: Killian, Decisive Mentor
Bracket: 3
Deck overview
Killian, Decisive Mentor is the engine of an Orzhov enchantress/goad deck. The primary plan is to flood the board with cheap Auras, using the commander to tap and goad opposing creatures while drawing cards, then convert an Aura-heavy battlefield into a single lethal swing. The closest thing to a hidden commander is Killian, Ink Duelist, with Light-Paws, Emperor's Voice acting as the backup tutor engine. Backup win paths include Eriette of the Charmed Apple's drain, Psemilla/Archon of Sun's Grace token pressure, and recurring Auras through Retether or Mantle of the Ancients. The deck leans on enchantment density, so it is strong in long-value games but linear.
