Commander: Knuckles the Echidna

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This is a mono-red Treasure-matters build helmed by Knuckles the Echidna, whose two relevant abilities are a combat-damage trigger that creates Treasure tokens and a triggered win condition that checks for thirty or more artifacts at the beginning of your upkeep. The deck's primary plan is to generate as many Treasure tokens as quickly as possible - through combat triggers, burst sorceries like Brass's Bounty, and repeatable engines such as Xorn and Luke Cage, Hero for Hire - and then simply survive until Knuckles' upkeep trigger fires. Secondary wins come from commander damage with the help of extra combat steps (Savage Beating, Seize the Day) and from incremental pings (Reckless Fireweaver, Embersmith). The list is heavily artifact-dense, leans on creatures that make Treasures on attack or ETB, and contains almost no traditional removal or stack interaction, making it a pure race to the "30 artifact" threshold.
