Spellslinger Taigam, with a Voltron twist.

Win con: Buff Taigam, use rebound to abuse card draw and tutors

Flavor/Theme: Dragon Eye Sanctuary opened their treasury of strong artifacts acquired.

This is what happens when Gruul guy tries to play blue. I like the unique idea, but need a lot of help, my mind does not work in the ways of this color. Initally, I wanted a very interactive deck, but outside of mill (which I hate) I couldn't think of a good win con. So, in my inferior Gruul mind thought, why not buff Taigam and abuse his rebound for a blue version of extra combat and card draw abuse.

Uncounterable Infinite Turns Combo: Relearn , Call to Mind , Time Warp / Temporal Manipulation , Taigam, Ojutai Master .

Attack with Taigam, Ojutai Master cast Time Warp / Temporal Manipulation . Next turn: Time Warp / Temporal Manipulation rebounds, attack again, cast Relearn / Call to Mind to return Time Warp / Temporal Manipulation . Next Turn: Relearn / Call to Mind rebounds, grab a free spell, attack, cast Time Warp / Temporal Manipulation . Next Turn: Time Warp / Temporal Manipulation rebounds, attack, cast the Relearn / Call to Mind to return Time Warp / Temporal Manipulation . Next Turn: Relearn / Call to Mind rebounds return Relearn or Call to Mind , whichever is in the graveyard, attack, Time Warp / Temporal Manipulation . Rinse, repeat, and have everyone hate you.

THIS IS ALL SEARCHABLE WITH Mystical Tutor and Taigam, Ojutai Master . DO NOT REBOUND Mystical Tutor .

On Opponents Turn: Mystical Tutor for Relearn / Call to Mind . Your Turn: Attack with Taigam, Ojutai Master , cast Relearn / Call to Mind , return Mystical Tutor . On Opponents Turn: Mystical Tutor the other Relearn / Call to Mind . Your Next Turn: Relearn / Call to Mind rebounds, return Mystical Tutor , attack with Taigam, Ojutai Master , cast Relearn / Call to Mind for Relearn / Call to Mind . Opponents Turn: Cast Mystical Tutor for Time Warp / Temporal Manipulation . Your Turn: Relearn / Call to Mind rebounds Mystical Tutor . Combo is ready and you still have your Tutor.

Kind of convoluted but with The card draw and and tutors, this combo can come out fairly easy. The annoying part is it's hard to explain

Always appreciates and encourages suggestions!
