Commander deckW
Fíli the Pathfinder
Flood the board with nontoken Dwarves and changelings to trigger Fíli's token generation, quickly meeting the Storied requirement with cheap artifacts, legendary cards, and Sagas to permanently buff your army and overwhelm opponents.

Deck anatomy
What this list actually runs on: how cheaply it casts things, and whether it has enough ramp, card draw and interaction to keep up at the table. Each block is one card — hover for its name.
Mana curve · 60 nonland cards
The working parts
Counted from Scryfall’s community card tags, not from the builder’s own labels. A card that does two jobs counts twice, so these add up to more than the deck. The hatched band is a common rule of thumb, not a law — combo decks run leaner, battlecruiser decks heavier.
