I’ve been watching Standard 2022 and I’ve been liking the Bard Class deck. It is because of a storm/aggro deck. It is entertaining to pilot. I enjoy ripping through my deck then getting into the red zone with creatures. However, I can’t just play that deck in Standard, can I? Thus, I attempted to port over Bard Class to EDH. The standard version leverages multiple Level 2 Bard Classes, so I lose out on that. So, can it still work? Hear me out:

Bard Class is ramp, cost reduction, and card draw all in one. Though I can't have multiple copies, I can duplicate the effect.

Ramp: Mana dorks, Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer, Radha, Heir to Keld, Klothys, God of Destiny, Selvala, Explorer Returned, Selvala, Heart of the Wilds, Grand Warlord Radha.

Note: Most Bard Class decks play Esika, God of the Tree   to make all the legendary creatures into mana dorks. I have no interest in making this build into five colors so Cryptolith Rites is the substitute. Cryptolith Rite is always a powerful addition to any deck with plenty of creatures and tokens.

Cost Reduction: Goblin Anarchomancer, Birgi, God of Storytelling  , Nylea, Keen-Eyed, Urza's Filter

Card Draw/Top Deck Draw: Gallia of the Endless Dance, Plarrg, Dean of Chaos, Reki, the History of Kamigawa, Selvala, Explorer Returned, Nylea, Keen-Eyed, Beast Whisperer, Toski, Bearer of Secrets, and Sylvan Library

At first, I had a hard time deciding on who would be the commander of this deck. I landed in Samut because she is a haste enabler in the command zone and has tap/untap synergies. For example, Samut enables Captain Sisay to be used twice a turn for {W}. Tutoring for legends in my legend deck was strong enough, but now it can be done multiple times a turn. Below are some of the cards that follow this theme.

Tap/Untap: Quirion Ranger, Plargg, Dean of Chaos  , Augusta, Dean of Order, Captain Sisay, Kolvori, God of Kinship  , Saryth, the Viper's Fang, and Yisan, the Wanderer Bard.

Oh course I added Cloudstone Curio and Temur Sabertooth for bouncing shenanigans. With Bard Class at Level 3 and Cloudstone out, I can infinitely bounce Gallia of the Endless Dance and Radha, Heir to Keld to flip over the entire deck and play all my creates, with haste from Samut. In addition, Ashaya, Soul of the Wild and Quirion Ranger turn all my creatures into Forest and can be bounced.

Outside of Bard Class, this is a Naya beatdown deck that aims to make combat dangerous for my opponents. The combination of Nylea, God of the Hunt and Saryth, the Viper's Fang makes blockers pointless. Embercleave is there for the surprise double strike. General Ferrous Rokiric and Torens, the Fist of the Angels provide more bodies for attacking. Rienne, Angel of Rebirth is for board wipe protection. Inferno of the Star Mounts can just ping someone for 20 and that’s just great

I probably should add : Aurelia, Exemplar of Justice, , Drizzt Do'Urden, Kamahl's Druidic Vow, Heroes' Podium, Helm of the Hots, Ghired, Conclave Exile

Ideas and suggestions are welcome for this brew.
