How it grades
Fundamentals 38/100. Plays like Knight Tribal and Voltron.
This reads as Knight Tribal · Voltron, built around Syr Gwyn, Hero of Ashvale. A Knight deck at heart: the creatures share a type on purpose, and lords, payoffs, and type-matters synergies make the whole board bigger than its parts. Tribal decks trade individual card power for critical mass, so keep the knight count high and let the synergy pay the bills. Its strongest fundamental is mana curve (54% of spells cost ≤2, 6% cost 6+); the first thing to tighten is legality & size: the deck is 60 of 100 cards.

Where it falls short
- DMana reliability30% of your spells arrive on time. Syr Konrad, the Grim is the riskiest: its B cost is heavy for this mana base, so expect it several turns late.
- FLand count24 lands. About 40 fits this curve for Knight Tribal.
- FRamp1 ramp effects (want 10+ for this curve for Knight Tribal).
- CCard draw5 draw effects, counting Syr Gwyn (want 8+ for Knight Tribal).
- BInteraction7 removal/protection effects (want 9+ for Knight Tribal).
- BWin conditions17 threats (want 19+) and no combo found. This deck can win, but slowly.
- B-Card qualityMedian EDHREC rank #8,261
- FLegality & sizethe deck is 60 of 100 cards.
