Notes

Theme: Clues & iconic D&D cards
Mechanics: Clues, card draw, and inst/sorc

Need to play test and find out what tweaks to make. Maybe lean into control -- Abduction, Control Magic, Expropriate, etc.? Extra turns cards? Swap to dual lands? Look at "XX Ultimatum" card cycle. Crackling Doom? Check EDH Rec for ideas.

Add 11 gates (https://deckbox.org/games/mtg/cards?f=17R2F0ZQ**!335!47R2F0ZQ**), plus Maze's End, Circuitous Route, Guild Summit. Maybe Gate Colossus, Crackling Perimeter, Scapeshift

Blink/flicker, fog effects? Ways to play Inst/Sorc from GY (e.g., Flashback)?

What's the win-con? What can I do with a ton of artifacts? Tap or sacrifice for something? What are relevant combos on my list?
