What's better than having your own powerful creatures? Having everyone else's powerful creatures too! This deck is all about copying things-- especially your opponents powerful creatures and commanders.

I made this deck almost wholly for the purpose of having fun playing EDH! I don't always care about winning, I just like seeing fun interactions and pulling off cool plays. Shapeshifters have always been interesting to me, whether in Magic or other games such as Smash Up. From that came this deck, chock full of shapeshifters and fun artifacts.

You won't find too many win-cons here, but the main ones would be Skullcrank + Duskmantle Guildmage (Mill), and Hive Mind + Pact of Negation or Slaughter Pact (to make others lose the game if they can't pay the cost).

Also, Hive Mind + Paradigm Shift , after using one of Crook of Condemnation Relic of Progenitus , Scavenger Grounds , Sentinel Totem , or Silent Gravestone

Not 100% sure what suggestions I'm looking for, mainly better cards than what I have, or cards that are even more fun and janky.

Feel free to leave any thoughts, suggestions, or feedback!
