This deck is a TON of fun! Basically you ramp up to Tamiyo's Journal, making a few clues in the process. Then, every turn you get whatever you like out of your deck!

The only question is, what do we want in there?

The Core search engine

With a green core of Thraben Inspector, Tireless Tracker, Weirding Wood , Tamiyo's Journal , you have your repeatable tutor ready. Add in Traverse the Ulvenwald and Thalia's Lancers and you have a very reliable package where you can pretty much get anything you need at any time. Lancers also gets Tamiyo's Journal besides assorted angels and dragons, spiders, eldrazi, etc. Grapple with the Past is another option.

The power of search.

Imagine lategame, a turn where you have an empty board except for Tamiyo's Journal , but you have Bruna Atarka, Evolving Wilds in hand.

You can cast Bruna, retrieve Tireless Tracker from your graveyard, play Evolving Wilds and fetch (2 more clues), sac clues to Tamiyo's Journal, (get 3 counters on tracker) search for Briarbridge Patrol , cast it, end the turn and cheat Dragonlord Atarka into play.

So for 11 mana, you get 4 creatures, 22 power, 23 toughness, and dealt 5 damage to their board.

Or, suppose you're facing a Liliana emblem. About every turn or two you can search for a Declaration in Stone, Linvala, whatever it takes. You can survive her a very long time, and still win the game.

Play your favorite colors

The current deck is G/W, with red for Atarka, but it is SO easy to get any color mana that you can pick whatever cards you like in whatever colors and get that to work.

Midrange, Ramp, Control, Combo

This list is midrangy, but I think control is a great angle to try also. Imagine passing the turn, they cast a spell, and you IN response sac 3 clues, search your library for the answer, and cast that answer. Confirm Suspicions anyone? Summary Dismissal ? Planar Outburst? Dragonlord Silumgar ? Nahiri?

Or do you have an amazing win-the-game combo you want to play? Demonic Pact+Harmless Offering is an option, even as a 1-of.

Combos this build uses

Journal+Tracker - make lots of clues, sac 3 at a time for 3 counters plus a free search.

Journal+Patrol - that creature you searched for free? play it for free too!

Lancers+Journal - each can search for the other, which then searches up a third thing.

Gisela+Bruna - everybody knows this one

Noose Grafter+Grisela - discard her for the free rescue by Bruna.
