Overview:
A Wyleth, Soul of Steel Voltron deck focused on equipping and enchanting the commander to draw cards and deal commander damage, utilizing both Equipment and Aura synergies for card advantage and protection.
Primer:
The deck aims to get Wyleth, Soul of Steel onto the battlefield early and protect it while accumulating Equipment and Auras. Key support pieces like Sigarda's Aid and Sram, Senior Edificer provide additional value and speed. The strategy involves building up Wyleth with various Equipment and Auras to create a threatening commander damage threat while drawing cards through Wyleth's attack trigger. Protection spells and instant-speed interaction help keep Wyleth alive, while cards like Sunforger provide toolbox utility.
Weaknesses:
The deck is heavily reliant on its commander, making it vulnerable to repeated removal. Board wipes and mass artifact removal can be devastating, forcing a rebuild from scratch. The deck can struggle if it can't protect Wyleth or if it falls behind on mana development.

Attribute Ratings:
- Speed: 4/10
- Resilience: 5/10
- Consistency: 4/10
- Interaction: 6/10
Rating Justification:
This deck operates at a casual level with some optimization in its Equipment and protection package. While it includes powerful cards like Sunforger and various protection spells, it lacks the fast mana and consistent early game presence needed for higher power levels. The deck can struggle to recover from setbacks and typically aims to win through combat damage around turn 10-12. When compared to higher-powered decks (5.0+), it lacks the speed and consistency to compete, but it outperforms most unmodified precons through its focused strategy and interaction suite.
Final power level rating: 4.0 - 4.5
