This deck exists because I think Eldrazi processors are REALLY fucking funny

Still a work in progress, I need to playtest this more and see what it needs and what works.

Basic goal is to be a deck I find fun to play: rewards active piloting, opportunities for tricksy bullshit, the ability to ruin big plays in ways besides saying "actually I counter that".

Big focus on cloning/copying. A lot of cards here are either copycats (Cryptomorph, Volrath and their enablers, Stunt Double, etc) or things that seem fun to copy (Disruptives, Wandering Archaic). Another focus is on what I refer to as "tricksy bullshit", which tends to mean changing the game in unexpected ways that benefit me. See Spellskite, Mystic Reflection. Political Trickery also counts as tricksy bullshit, mostly because it's a super old card I've never seen played before and I love the idea of stealing legendary lands.

There's a few cards that make use of the "Making Volrath a copy of something that makes copies of itself, creating an easy source of 7/5s that can also copy other things" thing, exemplified by Spawnwrithe. That's a neat trick, but I tried not to lean too hard on it because it's neat, but tends to end games earlier than I'd like. If you wanted to make this deck swing a little harder and maybe be a little more competitive (at the cost of being more dependent on Volrath), you could add more of that (Cultivator of Blades and Nacatl War Pride).
