Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Aesi, Tyrant of Gyre Strait leads a Simic landfall value deck. The primary plan is to ramp into Aesi, then chain extra land drops into landfall-triggered card draw and token production, finishing with Craterhoof Behemoth or Finale of Devastation. The secondary, faster plan is a deterministic land-bounce loop: Sakura-Tribe Scout or Skyshroud Ranger plus Retreat to Coralhelm and a bounce land replay the land infinitely. Tireless Provisioner converts those triggers into infinite Treasures; Scute Swarm or Aesi convert them into an overwhelming board. Walking Ballista, Finale, or a giant Craterhoof closes the game. Aesi is not required for the loop, but his extra land drop and drawing speed are the main assembly engine.
