Bilbos' birthday by KraventheGamer

Format: Commander

Commander: Bilbo, Birthday Celebrant

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Bilbo, Birthday Celebrant commands an Abzan lifegain and Food token deck that wins through attrition, combat overruns, and direct life drain. Bilbo increases all lifegain by one and provides an alternate late-game win condition if your life total reaches 111, putting all creatures directly onto the battlefield. The primary strategy focuses on assembling Food engines with Sam, Loyal Attendant and Pippin, Warden of Isengard to scale creatures like Treebeard, Gracious Host or drain tables with Sanguine Bond and Gollum, Obsessed Stalker. Token swarms from Farmer Cotton and overrun effects from Motivated Pony close out games through overwhelming board advantage.
