Crocker’s Crooked Troupe by user7630312

Format: Commander

Commander: Alela, Artful Provocateur

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is an Esper artifact/enchantment Faerie tribal deck built to play a controlling early game, then convert every artifact or enchantment spell into evasive Faerie tokens through Alela, Artful Provocateur. The second Alela in the 99, Alela, Cunning Conqueror, is a supporting flash-Faerie payoff rather than the commander's back face. The primary path is to assemble a wide flying board through token doublers and anthems, then finish with Cyberdrive Awakener animating artifact lands, mana rocks, and equipment. Secondary lines include suiting up the unblockable Changeling Outcast with All That Glitters or Cranial Plating. A soft control shell of counterspells, removal, Propaganda, and Ghostly Prison protects the board until the alpha strike.
