Welcome to my Aminatou primer! This is my labor of love and I will be updating the list as more new toys get added in the future sets.
dommes89: Good catch! I didn't even realized Temporal Mastery exile itself. I've replaced it with Time Warp.

+1! Love the deck!
I would ask you to consider Enlightened Tutor for the deck! Oath of Teferi is insane!

SynergyBuild: Thanks for the upvote! Enlightened Tutor will definitely be considered during my playtesting!

Great list and primer! Also a fan of blink decks. I strongly suggest you add Brago, King Eternal. He would have been a better commander if not for the access to which Aminatou gives you.
Will try to build an Aminatou deck as a side-project. This list gave me a lot of cool ideas. Thanks and +1!

Megalomania: Hey thanks for the feedback and suggestions. Brago is indeed a great suggestion. The reason I've decided not to add him is because he requires the attack step and doesn't get the value immediately. He also instantly puts the attention on my board which will prompt removal action from my playgroup (which is very removal heavy). Good luck with your list!

I really like Recruiter of the Guard in a blink deck. It fetches most of the creatures in your deck, blinking it seems pretty insane. Cloudform etc. are good in blink as well as when you blink them you unmorph your morphed card, meaning if it's a permanent it goes onto the battlefield.

The_Notebook: Great catch...it was supposed to be Talisman of Progress.
Squiggy686the2nd: Excellent suggestions! Will definitely find room for them especially recruiter.

Reality Acid seems really powerful in this strategy. Thoughts?

leviathan_cross: Sounds like a pretty good card...I'll test it out. Thanks for the suggestion!

Also Merchant Scroll gets Time Warp which seems to be a vital part of your game plan.

I would suggest something like Altar of the Brood to win immediately off of Felidar Guardian or OoT without any setup required, and second the Enlightened Tutor.
As an aside, Merchant Scroll does not find Time Warp, it is a Sorcery. It does however find Nexus of Fate

BlackyMTG: The reason why I didn't add vindicate is because I've delegated the sorcery speed removal role to my ETB creatures and instant speed removals for my spells...this way I'll have the best of both worlds. Merchant scroll only gets blue instants so time warp wouldn't be a legal target. Thanks for the suggestions!
IAMtheBW: The reason why I didn't include altar of the brood is because it's often a do nothing other than my win con outlet, technically any ETB creatures that draws me cards will win me the game on the spot too. I love the Enlightened Tutor suggestion though, will have to find space to test that out. Thanks for the input!

Your deck looks good.
But how can you take infinite turns with Temporal Mastery when it will be exiled...?!
