When I first saw Arjun, I was intrigued, I thought that he was a really bad general, since you couldn't really make a strategy with your hand, as it is going to get wheeled whenever you cast something, so I challenged myself to come up with a playable deck with him, and I was quite pleased with how it plays.

Okay, so the main idea is not to get attached to your hand and picture your whole deck. I made sure that I have an answer for almost anything that hurts me, so the issue is just finding it.

I have 7 main wincons: Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind and Psychosis Crawler for a ton of damage.

Jace's Erasure and Sphinx's Tutelage to mill.

Chasm Skulker for hundreds of squid tokens.

Diviner's Wand and Tenza, Godo's Maul for commander damage if eveything else goes wrong.

The rest of the deck is divided between control and drawing cards with a few support cards like Mindmoil , Alhammarret's Archive and Thought Reflection to help me filter through the deck.
