Bracket: 3

Deck overview

Mendicant Core, Guidelight leads an Azorius artifact-midrange strategy focused on rapidly deploying artifacts, accelerating speed counters, and overwhelming opponents through explosive board states. Early turns focus on casting efficient artifact mana sources and low-cost utility creatures to unlock max speed. Once online, Mendicant Core copies every artifact spell cast for a single mana, duplicating massive threats and value engines. The deck secures victory by generating lethal combat damage through scalable construct tokens from Simulacrum Synthesizer and Urza, animating artifacts into flying 4/4 attackers with Cyberdrive Awakener, or triggering an alternate win condition with Mechanized Production.
