Arna Aura by Nostrinho

Format: Commander

Commander: Arna Kennerüd, Skycaptain

Bracket: 3

Deck overview

This Esper midrange deck leverages Arna Kennerud, Skycaptain to aggressively scale modified creatures by duplicating Auras and doubling counters during attacks. While combat pressure forms the frontline plan, the deck also harbors potent combo packages to close out games reliably. Auras like Sheltered by Ghosts and Felidar Umbra provide both protection and removal that multiply with Arna. For instant wins, the list integrates infinite loops such as Abdel Adrian, Gorion's Ward paired with Animate Dead, alongside Archangel of Thune combined with a lifelink-granting Aura on Walking Ballista. Heavy enchantment recursion and efficient tutors ensure resilience and adaptability across all phases of play.
