Hobbit Precon - Bard, King of Advisor Rabbits

deck

This deck is an unconventional Azorius Combo / Self-Mill / Tribal Mill build, whose main goal is to use Hare Apparent to generate a massive number of tokens, then convert them into Advisors and end the game by milling all opponents’ libraries. The strategy begins with self-mill. Cards such as Mesmeric Orb, Hedron Crab, Millikin, Deranged Assistant, Faithful Mending, Ledger Shredder, and Jace, Vryn’s Prodigy allow you to quickly fill your own graveyard. Losing cards from your library isn’t a problem, quite the opposite, in fact, because Hare Apparents in the graveyard become fuel for the explosion to come. Once there are enough creatures in the graveyard, the deck utilizes mass recursion effects, primarily Raise the Past, Rally the Ancestors, and Ascend from Avernus. Bringing back multiple Hare Apparents at once triggers an avalanche of Rabbit tokens, allowing you to create a massive army of tokens in an instant from a seemingly empty battlefield. Another piece of the puzzle is Arcane Adaptation, Leyline of Transformation, and Maskwood Nexus. Thanks to these, Rabbits gain the Advisor type, allowing them to be used in conjunction with Persistent Petitioners. As a result, the vast number of tokens created earlier ceases to be merely an army it becomes fuel for activating Petitioners and grinding down opponents’ libraries. The deck also features additional tools for utilizing creatures and the graveyard. Altar of Dementia allows you to turn Rabbits into additional mill, and recursion enables you to reuse key creatures multiple times. Thanks to this, the deck can cycle through the following sequence: Self-mill → Hare Apparent in the graveyard → mass recursion → a huge number of Rabbits → Advisors → Persistent Petitioners → milling opponents. The most important thing is that the deck doesn’t have to win through combat. The massive horde of Rabbits is primarily a resource needed to power the mill engine. Opponents can have a huge advantage on the battlefield and still lose if the deck manages to pull off a single large recursion and accumulate enough Advisors.
