Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a group-hug/wheels deck helmed by Xyris, the Writhing Storm, built around a simple but explosive premise: force opponents to draw cards, convert every extra draw into a 1/1 Snake token, then bury the table under a horde. The deck runs a dense suite of symmetric draw engines (Howling Mine, Kami of the Crescent Moon, Rites of Flourishing, Font of Mythos, Dictate of Kruphix, Well of Ideas) and wheels (Windfall, Jace's Archivist, Winds of Change, Khorvath's Fury) to trigger Xyris en masse. The snake army wins through combat buffs like Shared Animosity, Beastmaster Ascension, Banner of Kinship, and City on Fire, while a parallel draw-punisher line (Psychosis Crawler, Razorkin Needlehead, Scrawling Crawler, Fevered Visions) drains opponents for every card they draw. Secondary token payoffs in Impact Tremors and Goblin Bombardment convert the swarm into direct damage.
