This general is well known for its stax strategies. But this deck is a little different and can do very well without infinity combos, hard lock stax, poisen counters and mass land destruction.

Description - work in progress:

• The foundation of this deck is ramp and card draw.
• The plan of this deck: Untap shenanigans for tons of tokens (and even more ramp and card draw).
• To finish the game use one of the wincons to overrun your opponents with the tokens.
• Protect yourself with counter, removal and alike.
• Plan B? See cards tagged "special" - the untap and target ability of the commander turns the little wizards into real magic weapons ;)
• to be determined: at the moment I'm testing which token generators fit best into the deck. The goal would be to take one or two out and e.g. add some more recursion.

I am very happy about every comment, questions and suggestions! :)
