Format: Commander

Commander: Alela, Cunning Conqueror

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Alela, Cunning Conqueror leads a flash-focused Dimir Faerie deck. The game plan is to land Alela early, hold up mana on opponents' turns, and turn the first spell cast on each of those turns into a 1/1 flying Rogue token. Those tokens trigger Obyra, Nettling Nuisance, and Oona's Blackguard to drain, goad, and discard, while Bident of Thassa and Reconnaissance Mission convert combat damage into cards. Notorious Throng and Shadow Puppeteers form the only real finishing push, turning a large Faerie board into a Dragon-fueled alpha strike. The commander is single-faced and there is no hidden commander; every card in the list feeds Alela's opponent-turn token engine or the Faerie tribal payoffs that follow it.
