First Combo Update —March 8, 2023
With the addition of Mind over Matter, it has given the deck a 2-3 card win depending on your play group and mana available. If this combo is generally accepted, I'll add a seperate section for this card instead of an update, so for now I'll explain it here. This entire combo assumes that there isn't another opponent with as many free counters as us. If there is, (silence) or (grand abolisher) is required before starting the loop. First, you need either (Kwain), (Thoran), or (Temple bell) out alongside Mind over matter. If you only have 1-4 cards in hand, you can't win the game unless you have a card doubler on board (Alhammret's Archive or Teferi's ageless insight). If you do, you will have enough card space and mana to search and play one. Once you have your doubler, you turn the remaining cards in your hand into your deck. What you need is 2 colorless mana and a blue source to win. Sources like Lotus petal and other rocks will help. With the mana, you cast show and tell, dropping omniscience. With this, and hopefully a silence effect in place, you can cast your win con. There is however one more catch. It has never happened to me, but there is on way to mess up besides being countered. That would be allowing someone to drop a Reclamation Sage affect to destroy omniscience with show and tell. I haven't put a card in the deck to deal with this, as I doubt it'll happen, but a simple stifle in the deck fixes this. Anyway, if you enjoy and hate this addition, please let me know!!! Once again, this is still a casual deck, but this allows the user to adjust to however strong or weak the play group is! Just remember to have fun, and let others have fun!... Until they decide to stop you from taking the win, haha. Later!!
