Commander: The Twelfth Doctor

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

An Izzet spell-copy shell built around The Twelfth Doctor's demonstrate trigger. The deck pairs its commander with a dense cast-from-exile/top-of-library engine (The Belligerent, Chandra, Melek, One with the Multiverse) to repeatedly cast instants and sorceries from outside the hand, gaining free copies and +1/+1 counters. The primary finish is a spell-copy kill: Pyromancer's Goggles plus Reiterate generates arbitrary copies of Grapeshot, with Soulbright Flamekin plus buyback Reiterate as a backup infinite-mana route. Secondary pressure comes from commander damage and token generation, while counterspells and flexible answers protect the combo. The mana base is lean and acceleration is modest, so the deck wins mid-game rather than turbo.
