How it has actually done
Not a rating — results from Commander games recorded at a table. See commander stats worth tracking and what mmr means in magic, which rates the deck rather than its pilot.
Bracket 3 — Upgraded
A floor, not a verdict — read off the cards in the list, so a deck can play higher than this and never lower. Read how the commander bracket system works, and bring it to your Rule 0 conversation.

The written read
An AI review of this specific list, generated by its owner. Bracket 3 — Upgraded.
The deck wins by mass-producing Food tokens and other expendable tokens, using sacrifice outlets and recursion (Ruthless Technomancer, Lich-Knights' Conquest, Whip of Erebos, Tom, Bert, and William, etc.) to return or recur creatures and then turning those creatures into a large, buffed attacking board (amplified by +1/+1 counter synergies like Hardened Scales, Corpsejack Menace, Ozolith and Pizza Face's triggered counters) to drain opponents via combat and life-loss effects; Pizza Face specifically amplifies the +1/+1 counter plan by dumping three counters onto a key permanent each turn after a permanent left the battlefield, fueling the deck's grow-and-sacrifice engine to close the game.
Typically closes around turn 9 in a four-player game. This deck typically closes around turn 9 because it needs multiple token and recursion pieces plus counter setup; adding much faster, repeatable token production or fast mana that accelerates those pieces (the deck's Ramp role) is the single biggest way to move that earlier.
Its three strongest interactions
- Bristlebud Farmer / Peregrin Took / other Food generators + Lich-Knights' Conquest: you can create lots of Food tokens (which are artifacts/tokens) and then sacrifice those artifacts/tokens to Lich-Knights' Conquest to return many creature cards from your graveyard to the battlefield in one spell.
- Pizza Face, Gastromancer + Hardened Scales (and/or Corpsejack Menace/Ozolith/Doc Samson): Pizza Face's end step placement of three +1/+1 counters onto another permanent is amplified by Hardened Scales-style effects and counter-doublers here, turning Pizza Face's triggered counters into much larger stat boosts that help close combat quickly.
- Food/token generators (e.g. Bristlebud Farmer, Gyome, Savvy Hunter, Tireless Provisioner, Heroic Feast) + Ruthless Technomancer (and/or Tom, Bert, and William as a sacrifice/draw outlet): the deck repeatedly creates expendable artifacts/tokens that Ruthless can consume (sacrificing artifacts) to return creatures from the graveyard, and other sacrifice outlets or enter/leave triggers turn token creation into card-advantage and recursion fuel.
Cards that would extend them
- Parallel Lives: extends the Food generation + Lich-Knights' Conquest synergy by doubling token output so you can pay Lich-Knights' Conquest with far more artifacts/tokens in one go.
- Primal Vigor: extends the Pizza Face + counter-doublers synergy by doubling the +1/+1 counters the deck produces, making Pizza Face's end-step counters and your other counter sources far more lethal (note: this is not on the Game Changers list).
- Ashnod's Altar: extends the Food/token generation + Ruthless Technomancer synergy by providing an efficient sacrifice outlet that converts expendable tokens into repeatable resources and enables larger artifact-sacrifice counts to satisfy Ruthless's return ability.
