Notes
 
Have played this deck only a few times now... it just dominates the table when it goes. May want to have it focus on Prowess?

In that case, stuff like this may work:
- New Narset (MAT)
- Burning Prophet (not prowess but has prowess)
- Elsha (already play it... may also become the commander?)

====
With the Streets of New Capenna (SNC) set and commander decks coming out, there are some wacky cards which are reigniting my idea for a Narset political spellslinger deck.

In this instance, I'm going to focus less on drawbacks (which are fun) and more on playing cards I've rarely played, with an focus on copying on top of that. I want more value for my buck. I should work towards some bombs but also just playing my opponents.

Yes, still including Divine Gambit and Revitalize. If we need some early game shenanigans, I will play it.

==== CHANGELOG
01: 03-05-2022
Initial decklist. I wanted to play Mnemonic Deluge but the card was not available at either MU or Bazaar. I play Twinning Staff instead, which is perhaps a lot better.


[===== Capenna cards to consider for inclusion =====]
Halo Fountain (untaps Narset and generates a Citizen)
Strangle (Not quite bolt, just copy it though)
Arcane Bombardment (needs no introduction)
Witness Protection (U to Frogify)
Exotic Pets (1WU, perhaps 3WU Migratory Route is stronger)
Threefold Signal (three color spells have replicate 3...)
Swindler's Scheme (trying to cancel Instant spells)

EXISTING:
- Swarm Intelligence (HOU) - whenever cast inst or sorc, copy, choose new targets.
- Double Vision (M21) - whenever cast first inst or sorc in turn, copy, choose new targets
- Teach by Example (instant, Double Vision)
- Mnemonic Deluge (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA)

Bullshit cards:
- Strangle (SCC) - {R} to cast, sorcery, deal 3 to creature or planeswalker. Can't bolt faces but can strangle creatures!
- Swindler's Scheme (NCC) - If anyone casts a sorcery or instant, I could just flip the top card of my deck. Has a serious drawback in that they can cast that if it matches type but hey!
- Exotic Pets (SNC), give me free fish MULTIPLE times!
- Storm Herd (8WW), create Life Total * 1/1 white pegasus with flying
- Explosive Singularity (8RR), shoot 10 damage at anything. Attack with that topdecked...
- Knowledge Pool (6), casting from hand exiles a card and allows you to cast from a pool of exiled cards. I play from the top of my deck. Works!
