The Sea of Plagues

Standard Aggro UB (Dimir)

2npii


What started as an experiment in using Riptide Chimera as a recurring constellation trigger has morphed into a pretty nifty Dimir Aggro deck. The chimera and Master of Feast are both undercosted beaters with drawbacks; this deck aims to make the most of these.

Riptide Chimera allows you to return your turn 1/2 Gnarled Scarhide / Spiteful Returned to hand ready to bestow and lets you recycle Stratus Walk / Dictate of Kruphix to keep up with opponents when Master of Feasts is out.

Fate Unraveler punishes your opponents for all the extra draw they'll be getting out of Master of Feasts and Dictate of Kruphix.

This deck is over 50% enchantment so Grim Guardian can really cause some damage, particularly in conjunction with Riptide Chimera.

Dictate of Kruphix can be used with Fate Unraveler to deal out extra damage each turn or can be flashed into play on their turn then returned to your hand with Riptide Chimera after you've drawn your extra card.

This is very much a working progress so any suggestions/ upvotes would be greatly appreciated! However I'm trying to keep it Theros block only so please keep that in mind :)
