This deck exploits the light synergy between the two commanders and the so called Curiosity effects in order to build up card advantage, while not being reliant on the commanders being on the field in order to work.

The three main lines that this deck wants to pursue in order to close out the game are:

1) A soft lock, obtained through the combination of wheels and cards that deny draws to your opponents, such as Hullbreacher. This is meant to give you time to draw your other lines or simply beat down your opponents using the combination of the two commanders.

2) Using a Curiosity-type effect paired either with Glint-Horn Buccaneer or Brallin, Skyshark Rider  , in order to ping down your opponents.

3) Underworld Breach + Brain Freeze combo lines

This deck is not refined yet, partly because of the cost of some cards that would fit perfectly in the deck, but are not really affordable (e.g. Timetwister, Intuition and Lion's Eye Diamond) and partly because i'm testing some janky stuff, which i'm probably going to remove at some point.
