Format: Commander

Commander: Tetzin, Gnome Champion // The Golden-Gear Colossus

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This is a Jeskai artifact-value deck built around Tetzin, Gnome Champion and the Craft mechanic from Aetherdrift. The plan is to deploy a dense package of double-faced artifacts (roughly 27 in the 99), use Tetzin's mill-three-and-grab trigger to filter through the deck, and transform those DFCs via Craft into their powerful back faces - Tecutlan, the Searing Rift, Cosmium Kiln, Iceberg Titan, and friends. The commander's back face, The Golden-Gear Colossus, flips other DFCs and vomits Gnome tokens. The deck wins primarily through combat - Cyberdrive Awakener turning every artifact into a 4/4 flyer, Depthshaker Titan granting melee/trample/haste, and big beaters like Metalwork Colossus and Kappa Cannoneer - with Mirrodin Besieged's Phyrexian mode as a genuine alternate win condition. It's a midrange value engine that grinds card advantage and overwhelms with artifact bodies.
