Commander: Atla Palani, Nest Tender

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Atla Palani, Nest Tender runs a Naya egg-cracking engine: the commander makes Egg tokens, and every dead Egg cheats a creature from the library onto the battlefield. The primary plan is to assemble a sacrifice outlet, such as Goblin Bombardment, Ashnod's Altar, or Altar of Dementia, and chain Egg deaths into high-cost Dinosaurs and giants. Palani's Hatcher and Maskwood Nexus make the loop repeatable. Secondary paths win through Gishath/Etali attack triggers, Ghalta, Stampede Tyrant's hand dump, or a Polyraptor enrage loop. The deck is slow to start, has almost no counterspells, and depends heavily on keeping Atla alive, but its threats are massive and can snowball in one turn.
