Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Y'shtola, Night's Blessed helms an Esper control deck that turns noncreature spells into life drains and card advantage. The deck pairs pillow-fort enchantments with removal/counters to survive into the mid-game, then uses commanders like Papalymo Totolymo and drain effects like Sanguine Bond to convert repeated triggers into lethal damage. While it can pressure with infect via Phyresis or Hraesvelgr's unblockable pump, its primary route is incremental drain plus big X-spells like Exsanguinate. The commander is a draw engine and damage source, but the deck contains enough token makers and control pieces to function independently.
