Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Alela, Artful Provocateur helms an Esper artifact-token combo deck that generates a flying army from every artifact and enchantment it casts. The primary plan is to assemble Thopter Foundry + Sword of the Meek with a sacrifice outlet such as Ashnod's Altar or Krark-Clan Ironworks, creating infinite mana, life, and Thopter tokens. That infinite engine then powers Aetherflux Reservoir for a life-pay kill or Time Sieve for infinite turns. A secondary line uses Dramatic Reversal plus Isochron Scepter with mana rocks for infinite colorless mana, finished through Urza or Bolas's Citadel. Alela is a valuable multiplier but not essential to the core combos.
