Celes, Rune Knight by Knowbody

Format: Commander

Commander: Celes, Rune Knight

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Celes, Rune Knight is a Mardu spellslinger deck that wins by chaining noncreature spells while Wizard pingers-Guttersnipe, Black Waltz No. 3, and a swarm of 0/1 Wizard tokens-drain all opponents. Celes's entry refills the hand and her second ability turns graveyard reanimation into a pump finisher, but the deck is built around her as a one-shot draw engine rather than a required combo piece. The hidden commander is Kuja, Genome Sorcerer // Trance Kuja, Fate Defied, which creates Wizards and transforms into a double-damage finisher. Secondary paths include Hawkeye/Artist's Talent damage amplification and a small reanimation package that can turn Celes's counters into a combat kill.
