YOU ARE A PIRATE by Z-Statistics

Format: Commander

Commander: Edward Kenway

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Edward Kenway leads a Grixis Pirate-Vehicle midrange deck that wins by attacking with Pirates and crewed Vehicles. Edward generates Treasure for each tapped Pirate and Vehicle at the end step and exiles opponents' top cards when Vehicles deal combat damage, providing ramp and card advantage. The primary plan is incremental combat damage backed by theft and Treasure-fueled value. Secondary paths are deterministic combos: Curiosity on Glint-Horn Buccaneer with Malcolm for infinite draw, ping and Treasure, Curiosity on Magmakin Artillerist with a discard outlet for infinite pings, and Helm of the Host on Port Razer for infinite combats. Malcolm acts as hidden commander, enabling both ramp and combo mana.
