The goal of this deck is to lock out any creature-centric deck from being able to play anything at all, and if they do, it dies immediately.
I'm running Mizzium Skin and Boon of Erebos to proc heroic on
Agent of the Fates
or
Triton Fortune Hunter
and keep them safe. In an ideal situation the game would open:
T1: IslandT2: Swamp,
Omenspeaker
scry 2 and shut down some aggression.T3: Swamp,
Agent of the Fates
T4: Here's where the fun starts, Island/Swamp, Hidden Strings, untap the two lands used to cast it, cast Aqueous Form, they sacrifice another creature, attack, scry 1, Hidden Strings is castable for free, untap
Agent of the Fates
and another land!
From there they can't really put anything on the board, just keep the Mizzium Skin and Boon of Erebos in hand
The
Triton Fortune Hunter
is there to make sure you can dig through your deck and keep a card advantage,
Thassa's Emissary
puts your creatures out of range of mortars or most removal that doesn't target, and lets you draw more cards!
I'd like to get this deck ready for a FNM, I know I'm just not seeing all the problems. When I've played it against the local group, they've all promptly refused to play it again. The deck I'm worried about is the UW Esper control decks.
