    This deck is quite consistent for a Commander deck, with a stack of
    two-drop “draw a card” creatures as well as a powerful early ramp suite.
    It’s extremely mana-hungry, so you want to play and blink creatures
    that search for lands early and often to set up for your huge late game.
    That late game is enabled by the overwhelming value engine that is one
    of the five Archaeomancers in conjunction with one of the five Ghostly Flickers. You use the Ghostly Flicker
    to target the Archaeomancer and another creature to return the Ghostly
    Flicker to hand, and in doing so generate incremental value while
    hopefully messing with your opponent.

    My favorite creatures to endlessly blink like this are Mystic Snake, Knight of Autumn, and Duplicant,
    each of which deal with a different kind of problem and provide endless
    frustration for your opponents. Past that, however, just dumping mana
    into blinking a Thragtusk over and over again feels incredible, and even flickering a humble Wall of Omens is a great time.

    Eventually your creature-based tutor suite allows you (given enough mana) to win most games from any position. With a Recruiter, you fetch Fierce Empath to fetch Avenger or ’Hoof (or both, with a blink effect), or if you need to assemble your engine you can use Fierce Empath to instead get Woodland Bellower, which then gets Eternal Witness to return a Ghostly Flicker effect. Other ways to get ’em dead quick are, of course, Purphoros triggers, or a good old-fashioned Genesis Wave for a squillion.

    I’ve deliberately not included the Deceiver Exarchs and Pestermites of
    the world due to our house rule against infinite combos, but that is an
    option for you if your playgroup allows it. Both Imperial Recruiter and
    Recruiter of the Guard can fetch Kiki-Jiki, which will offer you further consistency with this combo. Alternatively, if you want to get a bit sillier, include cards like Mirror March and Mindclaw Shaman to power down the deck a bit.
