Commander: Cloak and Dagger, Entwined

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Cloak and Dagger, Entwined is a black-white attrition/voltron list. The commander's entry is a temporary hand and creature answer, and its lifelink/deathtouch body makes it an ideal equipment carrier. The primary plan is to curve cheap creatures and token makers into equipment and auras, strip opponents' key cards, then win through a suited commander or a swarm of flying Spirits and Zombies. Heliod's Pilgrim is the deck's hidden tutor, finding Dub, Pacifism, Faith's Fetters, or Spectral Steel; Aphemia, the Cacophony turns spent enchantments into tokens. There are no infinite combos, so the deck relies on repeated small advantage and a Kirtar's Wrath reset to outlast the table.
