This is a 5-color control deck with built-in combos to finish things off. Control of the board can be achieved with constant flickering of ETB ability creatures to interrupt your opponents. There're several interesting synergies and combos with flickering of creatures.

Card Interactions

Eternal Witness + ETB ability creatures + Mass blinking instants Show

Eternal Witness could retrieve the blinking instant everytime it came back. By doing so, you can trigger the ETB ability of creatures several times as long as you have enough mana.

Chord of Calling Show

You can always use Chord of Calling to fetch for Eternal Witness and get it back with Eternal Witness' ability.

After that, you can also tutor for Restoration Angel and blink Eternal Witness bringing Chord of Calling back. Finally just tutor for Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker for the win. (Combo 1)

Reveillark + Body Double Show

Cast Body Double copying a Reveillark in your graveyard. In that way, everytime it dies you can bring it back by targeting itself and another creature in the graveyard since Body Double is a 0/0 in the graveyard.

Ixidron Show

Ixidron is extremely powerful in this deck. It's considered a board-wipe even though it doesn't really kill creatures. In my opinion, turning creatures faced down with Ixidron is even better than just destroying them for 4 reasons.

First, people always find it harder to get back the turned-down creatures than destroyed ones. Second, you can't send you commander back to the command zone if it's just turned face down. Third, I can just flicker Ixidron again if I want to wipe again. Lastly, Ixidron's ability is not really a ETB ability, therefore cards like Torpor Orb can't stop it. And because it's not ETB ability, every creature I control that enters the battlefield at the same time as Ixidron remains face-up.

Sun Titan + Eternal Witness + Lotus Cobra + Displace or Ghostly Flicker + Fetchlands Show

If you have Sun Titan, Eternal Witness, and Lotus Cobra on the battlefield, any fetchland in the graveyard, and Displace or Ghostly Flicker in your hand, you can simply just blink Eternal Witness and Sun Titan several times to get all the lands your fetchlands could fetch.

Gilded Drake + Eldrazi Displacer Show

Steal as many creatures as you want as long as you have the mana.

Blink Angel of Serenity (Currently removed) Show

Blink Angel of Serenity in respond to its ETB ability. The LTB ability will resolves before ETB ability does, which means the creatures exiled with Angel of Serenity will be permanently exiled.

Birthing Pod + Ghostly Flicker Show

Ghostly Flicker can untap Birthing Pod for an extra search.

Birthing Pod + Pestermite Show

Sometimes you have a Birthing Pod and a CMC-2 creature onboard and you need a CMC-4 creature instead of a CMC-3. What you can do is to sacrifice the CMC-2 creature with Birthing Pod to search for Pestermite. Untap Birthing Pod with Pestermite's ability, and tap and sacrifice Pestermite to search again for a CMC-4 creature.

For bumping up to a CMC-5 creature, please refer to the next section.

Birthing Pod + Hostage Taker or Venser, Shaper Savant Show

Same as the previous section, under some circumstances when you have Birthing Pod on the battlefield and you need a CMC-5 creature for the win for example like a Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker, but you've only got a CMC-3 creature, you can first search either Hostage Taker and exile you own Birthing Pod or Venser, Shaper Savant and bounce Birthing Pod back to you hand. Recast Birthing Pod and sacrifice Hostage Taker or Venser, Shaper Savant for a CMC-5 creature.

Combos

Combo 1: Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Restoration Angel or Pestermite Show

Infinite hasty Restoration Angel or Pestermite tokens to kill your opponents.

Combo 2: Deadeye Navigator or Eldrazi Displacer + Peregrine Drake + Unsettled Mariner in hand or on the battlefield // Deadeye Navigator + Dockside Extortionist + Unsettled Mariner in hand or on the battlefield Show

Generate infinite mana with Deadeye Navigator or Eldrazi Displacer + Peregrine Drake // Deadeye Navigator + Dockside Extortionist. Cast Reaper King and then Unsettled Mariner. Pair Unsettled Mariner with Deadeye Navigator and blow up everything except yours.

Combo 3: Eternal Witness + Peregrine Drake/Dockside Extortionist + Ghostly Flicker/Displace + Unsettled Mariner in hand or on the battlefield Show

Cast Ghostly Flicker targeting Eternal Witness and Peregrine Drake. Retrieve Ghostly Flicker and untap five lands. Repeat this infinite times for infinite mana and then cast Reaper King and another scarecrow. Now cast Ghostly Flicker targeting Eternal Witness and Dockside Extortionist and blow up everything opponents control.

Modified Combo 2 and 3 Show

Scarecrow could be replaced with some cards with ETB:

• Coiling Oracle, Wall of Blossoms, Generous Patron or Watcher for Tomorrow: Draw into Unsettled Mariner
• Imperial Recruiter, Recruiter of the Guard, or Woodland Bellower: Tutor for Unsettled Mariner / Generous Patron
• Spellseeker: Tutor for a Demonic Tutor or Eladamri's Call
• Venser, Shaper Savant: Bounce everything your opponents control
• Reveillark and Sun Titan: Hopefully there're something in your graveyard to finish the combo
• Pestermite: Lockdown of all permanents your opponents control.
• Hostage Taker: Steal every creature and artifact from your opponents
• Ravenous Chupacabra: Boardwipe for your opponents
• Wood Elves: Get all the forests :(

Combo 4: Survival of the Fittest + Any creature in hand Show

Discard that creature and search for Pestermite. Dump it and search for Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker. Dump that again for Reveillark. Cast Reveillark for its evoke cost and return Pestermite and Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker to the battlefield for Combo 1.

Combo 5: Reaper King + Rite of Replication (Currently Removed) Show

Cast and kick Rite of Replication targeting Reaper King. This destroys 25 permanents.
