Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This Esper enchantment deck plays a slow control game and wins through overlapping enchantment combos. Zur, Eternal Schemer does not drive the win; he protects your board by giving enchantment creatures hexproof, lifelink and deathtouch and can animate enchantments into blockers or attackers. The main win is the life-drain loop of Enduring Tenacity plus Exquisite Blood, started by any life gain. Backup wins use Abdel Adrian with Animate Dead and Necromancy for infinite Soldiers and ETBs, and Opalescence with Day of the Dragons and Astral Dragon for infinite Dragons. Zur the Enchanter acts as a hidden tutor engine when it attacks.
