Commander: The Council of Four

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This is a W/U group-symmetry deck built around The Council of Four: the game plan is to accelerate everyone's draw step with cards like Howling Mine, Dictate of Kruphix, Font of Mythos, and Kami of the Crescent Moon, then convert that forced card flow into your own value. The Council turns opponents' second draws and second spells into cards and 2/2 Knights, while Trouble in Pairs, Smuggler's Share, and Consecrated Sphinx bury you in advantage. Wins come from a large knight/illusion swarm finished by Moonshaker Cavalry or Akroma's Will, with Laboratory Maniac, Triskaidekaphile, and Psychosis Crawler serving as situational alternate/wins that the deep draw can naturally reach.
