A rough idea of a basic arcanist shell come strixhaven. I'm not sure if death's shadow is ideal in a deck like this but time will tell. The biggest problem with these lists is that it can be difficult to close out games fast enough, and maybe DS will help in that regard.

The board can be adjusted to however the meta shapes up. I'm guessing for the first few weeks phoenix will be hot shit with the addition of brainstorm and faithless looting hence the pillar of flames. Aside that not much is different in the board... 90% of it is dedicated to dealing with leyline, RIP and cage.
