Fun, semi-competitive Esika deck with a lot of battlecruiser-esque cards and old toys to enjoy. The goal is focused mostly on casting the Prismatic Bridge and cheating big creatures onto the board, but keep games interesting by having a large pool of bombs to flip into.

As a personal note, I self-ban flip cards (logistical, don't want to unsleeve cards), extra turn effects, and anything particularly time-intensive to help gameplay be fast and smooth.

Recently cut Jin-Gitaxias and Vorinclex, due to the impact on the table they have. Swapped Progenitus out temporarily for more fast mana, but may look for 2-3 more slots for bridge threats soon.

Considering Fierce Guardianship, Sun Titan, Serra's Emissary, and Koma, not sure where to include them.

12/24/2021 Changelog:

+Archon of Cruelty, +Chromatic Orrery

-Hypnox, -Austere Command

After a few games, it was brought to my attention I've been misplaying Hypnox since Torment: the Nightmare Horror trigger is casting from hand specific, not applicable should it be Bridged or Reanimated. Swapped for a different threat. Austere Command has been swapped with Chromatic Orrery, as I felt like I had plenty of wrath effects and Austere Command was merely the most expensive one to swap.

12/29/2021 Changelog:

+Fierce Guardianship, +Archetype of Endurance

-Swan Song, -Old Gnawbone

Better counter protection for the Bridge, but cheaper and more flexible. Old Gnawbone just didn't have the immediate impact to be valuable in this list. Also got some foil lands updated in the list.

1/2/2022 Changelog:

+Blazing Archon

-Painful Truths

Another fun beater to flip into. Trying to slowly add 2-4 more fun cards to flip into instead of more consistency to keep games spicy.
