Bracket: 4

Deck overview

Rakdos one-life pings deck built around Ob Nixilis, Captive Kingpin. Primary plan is to resolve two or three group-slug pieces-Copper Tablet, Underworld Dreams, Manabarbs-so every draw step or land tap makes each opponent lose exactly 1 life, turning Ob into a card-advantage engine that exiles the top of the library and grows into a finishing flier. Secondary line is the All Will Be One loop: once AWB is out, any counter on Ob deals 1 damage, causing another Ob trigger and a mandatory loop that drains all opponents. Prosper, Tome-Bound functions as a hidden commander, compounding exile value with treasure; blood-effects, sweepers, and stax pieces buy time.
