This is my paper Mairsil list, but I have not seen MTGGoldfish or CMDRVS take a crack at Mairsil yet. So this is my submission for viewer submitted stuff.

The lack of tutors is purposeful. I don't like playing with a lot of tutors because it feels like it dilutes the fun of the format, especially since this deck does have infinite combos (I mean the game does have to end at some point). Therefore, the only tutor is Gamble because it feels like the most fair option.

Feel free to adjust this for budget reasons MTGGoldfish (also make sure to take out the Sol Ring)! :)

As for CMDRVS, hoping Jonathan gets to pilot this even though I am #TeamGreen!
