Thieving Graveyard Player by Spades

Format: Commander

Commander: Bilbo, Thief in the Night

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a mono-blue artifact-combo deck built around Bilbo, Thief in the Night as a discount and graveyard-replay engine. There is no hidden commander or back face; the deck is built around Bilbo's single face. The primary plan is to use Bilbo's attack trigger to cast key artifacts, instants, and sorceries from the graveyard for one less, then assemble a top-deck loop with Sensei's Divining Top plus a top-cast enabler and enough cost reduction. That loop draws the library into Laboratory Maniac or Jace. Secondary paths are artifact beatdown with Sai thopters, Urza's Construct, and Kappa Cannoneer, plus an Aetherflux Reservoir storm-style alternative. The deck is counter-heavy and draws a lot, but it remains vulnerable to artifact hate.
