Commander: Niv-Mizzet, Visionary

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Niv-Mizzet, Visionary is a six-mana spellslinger engine: every noncombat damage spell draws cards, fueling more burn. The deck accelerates with Sol Ring, Chrome Mox, and rituals, then multiplies damage through Furnace of Rath, Solphim, Mayhem Dominus, and Twinflame Tyrant. Primary plan is to chain cheap instants/sorceries and pinger triggers into a critical mass of mass-ping damage; secondary paths rely on Urabrask, Ashling, and Birgi to generate mana and cards without the commander. No double-faced commander is at the helm, and there is no hidden commander; the back faces of Urabrask and Birgi serve as support engines. The deck is fast and explosive but fragile to disruption.
