Yshtola V2 by Mystical-Brewer

Format: Commander

Commander: Y'shtola, Night's Blessed

Bracket: 5

Deck overview

Y'shtola, Night's Blessed helms an Esper control and combo shell that turns spellcasting and life loss into card advantage and steady burn. The deck controls the board with cheap interaction and hate pieces like Notion Thief, Narset, Parter of Veils, and Cursed Totem. Y'shtola accelerates resources whenever a player loses four life, pairing naturally with Curiosity or Tandem Lookout to draw cards whenever she triggers. The deck primarily wins through infinite colorless mana via Forensic Gadgeteer and Basalt Monolith, or by exiling the entire library using Divining Witch into a Laboratory Maniac win.
