Wernog, Rider's Chaplain & Bjorna, Nightfall Alchemist Commander Deck
The deck revolves around cycling cards to repeatedly blink creatures and generate clue tokens, using Astral Slide as the primary engine to phase out key creatures at instant speed while Wernog, Rider's Chaplain floods the board with investigation triggers every time he enters or leaves the battlefield. Academy Manufactor amplifies each investigate trigger into a trifecta of clue, food, and treasure tokens, and Bjorna, Nightfall Alchemist converts those sacrificed artifacts into a relentless goad engine that forces opponents to attack each other. Mirkwood Bats drains life for each token created, turning the avalanche of artifact production into a direct win condition while the deck recurs threats through graveyard recursion and cycling redundancy to outlast the table.
