Format: Commander

Commander: Linden, the Steadfast Queen

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Linden, the Steadfast Queen pilots a mono-white life-gain beatdown deck that wants to attack with a wide board every turn. Linden's attack trigger turns each white attacker into a life-gain event, feeding Ajani's Pridemate, Vanguard Seraph, Angel of Vitality, and Cat Collector while the life buffer lets the deck keep attacking. The primary path is token generation-Release the Dogs, Regal Caracal, Imperial Oath, Felidar Retreat-plus anthems like Syr Alin and Lyra to break through for lethal. The secondary path uses Rogue's Passage and Angelic Destiny to make a single large creature unblockable. There is no double-faced commander or hidden commander; Linden is the engine, not the finisher.
