Bracket: 2

Deck overview

This is a Golgari Elf go-wide deck that turns a growing creature board into combat damage. Master Chef puts an extra +1/+1 counter on each new creature and on Shadowheart, while Elf makers, anthems, and counter engines scale the board. Shadowheart is the primary engine: she sacrifices expendable tokens or recursive creatures for substantial card draw, but she must be cast and survive a turn before tapping. The main finishers are Craterhoof Behemoth, Overwhelming Stampede, and Overrun; Lathril offers a slower ten-Elf drain route. Freyalise, Llanowar's Fury is the hidden commander-capable card in the list, but is support here because the deck uses black. There is no complete infinite combo, so the plan is board development followed by one decisive attack.
