PROLOGUE:

With the recent banning of Flash essentially killing almost all "Fish-Hulk" builds in my local meta, players' attention are now leaning towards Thassa's Oracle and Dockside Extortionist so I thought I'd build something that aims to go "anti-meta" yet still utilizes some of the same victory paths.

So I present to you my Partners in Crime build featuring Tymna the Weaver and Silas Renn, Seeker Adept

This deck is a "soft stax" build that aims to nullify ETBs and slow down opponents while leveraging its two commanders to draw and assemble its own victory condition.

STRATEGY:

The immediate goal of the deck is to assemble a mana base and enough protection to initiate an alternate win condition using either Thassa's Oracle or Jace, Wielder of Mysteries with Demonic Consultation or Tainted Pact without contention.

To do this, the deck contains several tutors to search for the cards you needs and ways to build hand advantage such as with cards like Necropotence, the combination of Ad Nauseam + Angel's Grace and draw triggers through combat using Tymna the Weaver or Silas Renn, Seeker Adept to recast Mishra's Bauble or Urza's Bauable.

Aside from the main path to victory of this deck, there is an alternate combo within the deck which uses Auriok Salvagers + Lion's Eye Diamond . These two cards can generate infinite colored mana which can be used with Blind Obedience's extort ability to kill all your opponents or to recast Mishra's Bauble or Urza's Bauble to draw as mana cards as you want during your opponent's next upkeep which you could time right with Jace, Wielder of Mysteries in play or even turn into a win during your opponent's turn by using Emergence Zone to give Thassa's Oracle or Sevinne's Reclamation flash.

If you're desperate, you could also try to have all players draw to death using Windfall at least two times with Yawgmoth's Will while saving yourself with Angel's Grace
