This is my current take on Derevi Stax for cEDH. the current wincons are a Yisan, the Wanderer Bard chain into an Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite and just beats with the lands or a hard lock with something like Quirion Ranger + Tropical Island + Derevi, Empyrial Tactician + Stasis. Suggestions are welcome.

RECENT CHANGES:

Narset, Parter of Veils and Timetwister --> Rhystic Study and Oakhame Adversary Twister has always been mediocre in this deck, and Narset was put in as a way to make twister slightly better. Probably needless to say, it didn't work. More card advantage engines are good!!

Trinisphere --> Faeburrow Elder Okay, hear me out. I know this is probably the worst decision you've ever heard, but 3-Ball has not been doing anything for me recently. Due to Sushi Hulk running rampant, 3-Ball has just been making interacting with Flash a bitch to do. Vigilance effects on a bloom tender seems really really good, so I'm going to test faeburrow to see how a more aggressive strategy works on pressuring down the viability of ad naus.

Living Plane --> Hokori, Dust Drinker I've been off the Hokori train for a while but I must say, having a Yisan chain into a winter orb is looking realy spicy currently. I'll test this and see how things go. Living Plane was nice for basically an instant win with Elesh, but the card was A: bad in every other scenario and B: virtually untutorable, so the age old combo will go out for more viability.

That's all for right now, hopefully some new tech soon!
