Notes
Loving my base so far. 36 lands, basic heavy, with dual land type options. 10 ramp, sol ring, 6 two mana ramp that enable t3 kotis, archdruids command (slam dunk), selvala and traverse as big mana payoffs. 11 burst draw mostly based on power to "reload". Seasons past doubles as burst draw, recursion, and anti mill. Only other cards outside of this are profits, wiz class, mask, and kotis. This allows me to pretty freely blow permanents. Considering exploration and burgeoning. To complete the engine we need power, so we added the 10ish best pump cards, many of which are watching creature death triggers. This then needs to be co implemented with board wipes, which we have 11. There is enough incidental artifact/enchantment hosing that I'll forgoe the anemic ones. This leaves 17 spots.
At this point the deck is sufficient. What we want now is protection in particular. Enabling evasion, lifelink, evasion, and fun ofa are all secondary. And we want as many fight cards as we can put into the deck.
And with a handful of cuts, it will be there. I decided the board wipes were better than unblockable, add a false sense of security. If I can squeeze in the fogs I can save myself from commander damage. And I have two sources of trample. Negate/ counterspell are the next best pro after hexproof and phasing, especially as we are letting cre, art, and ench slide as we wait for a wipe. 1 blue should be pretty bagging in this deck, one rainbow more so. Going to add some free mana too.
And we got there. The unwind effects would be very good but I didn't want to duplicate my play pattern with Garth, and also didn't want to hesitate about board wipes. Right now I have a real devil may care attitude towards all my permanents. I essentially can get all there value out immediately, and if they stick around compound advantage but that's not strictly necessary. So I let myself lean into that to be streamlined. Magus of the abyss made the cut, as before or after a board wipe it's great with Kotis, and amazing if Kotis is enchanted or equipped. I lost the fogs and bad fight cards. Cryptic command essentially does everything, so we will just do that. I kept refuge as it's still awesome with board wipes straight up. Should be a blast to play, as I literately tear people apart. board wipes, hit you, restock is glorious.
