Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This is a Selesnya lifegain-and-+1/+1-counter deck helmed by Lathiel, the Bounteous Dawn, built around a dense "soul sisters" package that converts creature ETBs into life, which then fuels a swarm of counter-growing payoffs and Lathiel's end-step counter distribution. The deck aims to build a wide board of creatures that each grow on lifegain triggers, supercharged by counter doublers like Hardened Scales, Branching Evolution, and Conclave Mentor, then close the game with an overrun-style finisher such as Craterhoof Behemoth, Moonshaker Cavalry, Blossoming Bogbeast, or a big Finale of Devastation. It is a fair, value-oriented midrange deck with strong card draw and a resilient protection suite, but no infinite combos and no counterspells - it wins through incremental board development and a single explosive combat step.
