Alicia Masters, Skilled Sculptor

Alicia Masters is a tempo-focused commander that rewards you for casting noncreature spells by generating Treasure tokens each combat. This creates a satisfying loop: cast a spell on your turn, swing in, make a Treasure, then tap it for mana to fuel your next spell. Her passive end-step ability doesn't do much in most matchups, but it's a nice cleanup effect that lets you take control of creatures temporarily if needed. The core gameplan is to cast low-cost artifacts, spells, and utility on the turns you attack, ramp into bigger plays via Treasures, and deal damage through a combination of equiped creatures and artifact synergies. You win by attacking with a well-equipped creature or by flooding the board with artifact tokens and small creatures.

Build around cost-efficient noncreature spells—think artifact tutors, board wipes, card draw, and removal that don't cost much mana. Equipment is your best friend here, since each one is a noncreature spell that makes your creatures bigger. Pair Alicia with cheap artifacts that do work immediately or generate value, and don't be afraid to run a few mana rocks that count as noncreature spells. The Treasure generation is your engine, so you're essentially playing a ramping midrange deck that gets faster each turn you trigger her.
