This deck is intended for multiplayer, and aims to turn your opponents against one another for your own advantage. Makes your opponents more worth hitting with cards like Bitter Feud and Crown of Doom while making yourself less appealing with cards like No Mercy and Michiko Konda, Truth Seeker. This allows you to craft a perfect hand to eventually take advantage of players overextending themselves and turning their game-winning moves right back at them!

You'd like this deck if:

• You love the feeling of having the perfect card at just the right moment

• You like playing reactively

• You like playing politically

You won't like this deck if:

• You like attacking with your own creatures

• You like having your own win cons

• You like denying your opponents their resources

• You want to consistently win with your own cards

All Star Card of the deck: Sunforger - This card does Work in this deck. If you can get it to stick on the board, you can fetch every instant in the deck at exactly the right time. Use Buried Ruin to return it from the graveyard and use Mistveil Plains to recycle your instants back for another Sunforger tutor!

Alternate plan: I had originally gone a much more token-heavy route with this deck, and still am tempted to add a Breath of Fury package to the deck as a backup win-con for long games.

Suggestions always welcome!
