Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a Mardu reanimator and ETB deck built around Celes, Rune Knight. Celes acts as a discard outlet and draw engine, letting you bin combo creatures and dig for reanimation spells. The primary plan is to accelerate into Celes, use cheap reanimation (Animate Dead, Necromancy, Reanimate) to put Abdel Adrian or Murderous Redcap into play, then convert infinite ETB/death loops into a win with Altar of Dementia or Zulaport Cutthroat. Secondary lines use flicker payoffs like Restoration Angel and Conjurer's Closet to grind value, and hasted beatdown from Anger/Chainer. The commander also pumps creatures that enter from graveyards, turning persist loops like Redcap into deterministic wins.
