The king is back!

Yes, you heard me right, Arthur, Marigold Knight is back, and he is NOT alone. The usual strategy revolves around cheating good ETBs and copying them thanks to Arthur, Marigold Knight's triggered ability, simple enough, right?

Extra combat phases

Arthur, Marigold Knight's triggered ability triggers every time he attacks, so having extra combats means also triggering his ability more than once, and therefore cheating extra creatures. To get extra combat phases I chose Akki Battle Squad, Eomer, Marshal of Rohan, Karlach, Fury of Avernus, Moraug, Fury of Akoum, Port Razer, Scourge of the Throne, Hexplate Wallbreaker, Great Train Heist, Savage Beating, Overpowering Attack, Relentless Assault, World at War, Grim Reaper's Sprint, and Zariel, Archduke of Avernus's ultimate/emblem

Good ETBs

Good ETBs are the most important reason to use Arthur, Marigold Knight as your commander, which is why I put a variety of ETB effects, that range from removal all the way to protection and card advantage. the list goes: Angel of the Ruins, Archangel Avacyn  , Barrin, Tolarian Archmage, Boon-Bringer Valkyrie, Cavalier of Dawn, Claim Jumper, Eagle of Deliverance, Eowyn, Fearless Knight, Ethereal Valkyrie, Fblthp, the Lost, Foundry Champion, Headliner Scarlett, Hulking Metamorph, Loran of the Third Path, Monstrosity of the Lake, Scourge of Fleets, Tyrant of Discord, Thundermare, Torrential Gearhulk, and Whirler Rogue

all round sinergies

although he is the king Arthur, Marigold Knight can't make it alone, this is why I put some highly sinergic cards to help him win the battle. These cards are Arni Metalbrow, Barrin, Tolarian Archmage, Cadric, Soul Kindler, Cayth, Famed Mechanist, Deadeye Navigator, Gandalf the White, Preston, the Vanisher, Rose Room Treasurer, Whirler Rogue, Flameshadow Conjuring, Mirror March, and Reconnaissance

ramp and card advantage

Ramping is a fundamental way of getting ahead, such as getting card advantage, and even though this deck may not be very competitive, it still has a few cards to cover for these necessities: Barrin, Tolarian Archmage, Ethereal Valkyrie, Fblthp, the Lost, Headliner Scarlett and Loran of the Third Path cover the card advantage when Arthur, Marigold Knight doesn't by himself; while Claim Jumper, Rose Room Treasurer, Great Train Heist and the usual artifact package (all 3 guild signets {Azorius Signet, Boros Signet, and Izzet Signet}, the Arcane Signet, and the Sol Ring) cover the much needed mana base

sideboard and maybeboard

the sideboard is mostly made of cards that would be amazing in the deck, but are clearly outside of my budget range; and a few cards that are against some house rules (cards that take control of permanents indefinitly). the maybeboard is a parallel list that I might build some day that revolves more around equipments; I dropped the idea halfway through because I don't really want to build it now and I often play someone that already has an equipment deck.

I might change the list to add some enchantments, but I haven't taken the time to check those out yet
