Have you ever sat back and thought "I wonder if I can use an old card that won someone a mulagin to 4 game in commander?" Well my friend I can say that you certainly can. Say hello to Yidris, Maelstrom Wielder by using cascade you can up your storm count quickly and gain mana if you have the right cards. You can abuse the cheapness of spells with as foretold as well with a little bit of graveyard utility with giving your spells two chances. Leading to large storm counts and big wins with Ignite Memories or playing a large Mind's Desire to play into a even larger storm count for the piror card.

Warning this deck was played and is designed for a meta at my LGS your experience with this deck might not go to plan or be less successful.

Switched out Burning Vengeance for Satyr Hedonist

I made this change because the flashback is kind of a backup theme and not the main win theme. So the damage doesn't often happen which just makes it a dead card on the field and I would rather have the three mana ritual which is either a for or a cascade for 1 or 0 drop and then the for . I just felt that the ritual with delay was more useful than the enchantment that means your main strat isn't working at all.

Switched out Secrets of the Dead for Opt

This one kind of follows the same reasoning as the change above. If the main win had been shut down back, then I don't want to try and have a back up that might do nothing to sit actively on the battlefield. So the idea of one mana draws to cascade into seemed nicer than a 3mana sit and maybe got the backup value seemed a little better.

Switched out Tale's End for Conqueror's Flail

This one is just kind of an odd upgrade, surprisingly. Tale's End was a card I was running to try and help stop interaction but not in a great way, and I've been pretty meh on it since making the deck. But after some extra sleep on it, I remembered a card from the pre-cons that gave me kind of a Grand Abolisher effect without having access to white. It might not be as amazing of a shutdown, but the shut down that it does provide is going to keep some interaction out. Counterspells are hard to run when you are doing a deck like this. I think along this line; you might see another update soon of Oona's Grace for Narset's Reversal since the retrace is not as great for draw a card as the cascade effect for the deck with Throes of Choas.

These are my current changes, and I hope made my deck stronger. This deck was an aim to be my competitive style deck, and I think I have done that and just need to keep working on that.
