Mizzix of the Izmagnus

Deck by Joseph of Casually Competitive

Intro

This Mizzix build is a very control focused deck. Since there isn't a direct line for victory in the command zone and the wincons aren't super easy to tutor, slowing and stopping your opponents goes a long way. This deck has a definite power ceiling so be aware of that when looking into building it.

Wincons / Combo Lines

Underworld Breach & Brain Freeze

Cards needed & Prerequisites to begin the loop

1. Underworld Breach
2. Brain Freeze
3. Spell that nets mana when cast (Lotus Petal, Lion's Eye Diamond, Turnabout, etc)
4. 1+ Mizzix Counter is recommended (not required, just increases the loop by )

3. Sacrifice Lotus Petal for
4. Cast Brain Freeze for targeting yourself, milling 9+ cards

2. Hold priority and cast Reiterate for , paying for the buyback for free due to the Mizzix counters, copying the Turnabout
3. Resolve Turnabout, untapping your lands, and then in response to the original Turnabout, re-cast Reiterate again buying it back
4. Once infinite mana is generated dump it into a payout (Searing Touch, Capsize + Nexus of Fate, Blue Sun's Zenith

Loop
