Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a tap-control midrange deck helmed by Hylda of the Icy Crown. The plan is to flood the board with cheap tap-activated creatures and enchantments that lock down opposing boards, then convert every tap into Hylda value-4/4 Elemental tokens, widespread +1/+1 counters, or card selection. Primary wins come from combat pressure once the token army and anthems overwhelm the table; secondary paths include soft locks via Opposition, Sleep, and repeated stun counters. The deck plays a classic Azorius control-to-beatdown arc: disrupt early, stabilize the board, then snowball Hylda triggers into an insurmountable army. No infinite combos are present; inevitability is pure combat and attrition.
