You always give great advice ThallionDarkshine! Thanks in particular for highlighting the Mirrorpool + Timestream Navigator combo which works great for this commander. I've added in Mirrorpool and Myriad Landscape for now, and will test the manabase further. But it was actually surprisingly smooth despite the low land count due to other ramp.

Muldrotha is more often insurance in this deck, to recur destroyed permanents and with the self-mill supplementing card draw, although he synergizes very well with some of the ramp and stax cards. So the deck actually plays alright without him or too much self-mill. I added Altar of Dementia to provide a bit more self-mill and serve as a potential wincon. The amount of self-mill feels about sufficient now, but I will test that further.

I didn't want to include the Mikaeus Triskelion combo because it's too easy and generic a way to win. The Mirrorpool Navigator combo is cool because it specifically relies on the commander's ability, and still needs more work to win. I also added in a Command Beacon + Food Chain combo for infinite mana, which can win via Altar of Dementia or Hedron Crab.
