Simic merfolk tribal with a heavy focus on untapping Merfolk for value. Recently upgraded deck to include an Isochron Scepter package with a suite of protective counterspells and instant-speed untap effects in place of the suite of untap effects centered with permanents. Deck is pretty vulnerable to boardwipes, as you really have to get that third fish on the board with Kumena, Tyrant of Orazca to get the engine going. This is probably my most durdly deck as it could definitely use more win conditions than just evasion like Deepchannel Mentor or Herald of Secret Streams, but it can be fun to play around with even it's incredibly easy to get greedy. Open to any suggestions.
