Commander: Magus Lucea Kane

Bracket: 4

Deck overview

This is a Tyranid X-spell midrange deck built around Magus Lucea Kane. The primary plan is to ramp into Lucea, tap her to copy expensive X-cost creatures - double Aberrants, Tervigons, or Exocrines - and turn those copied tokens into a lethal board with +1/+1 counters, Clamavus, and Winged Hive Tyrant. Secondary paths are a flying Tyranid token swarm (Gargoyle Flock, Tyranid Harridan) and copied X-damage spells for removal or reach. There is no hidden commander; Lucea is the engine. The finish is usually a one/two-combat overrun after a copied X payoff, with Exocrine as a risk/reward mass-damage option.
