Note:This deck is my actual EDH deck, all cards in main board I do legitimately have and thus any changes are restricted by budget/time to find.

Primary Goal: To create a fun EDH deck that would be semi-viable no matter what it went against, without any abusive (or terribly expensive) combos. Winning is irrelevant if both myself and my opponent have fun with it. Higher focus on multiplayer

Secondary goal: Create a deck that challenges me as a player, the more on my toes I am, the better.

Theme = Vesuva: shapeshifters, illusions, things that transform or alter the game style in general, those are all fair game. Intentional infinite combos or unfun mechanics such as infect are not.

Commander is Cromat because he is a five color illusion. As of yet, there are no five color partner commanders available, but if that changes (and it fits), I may switch to that.

===========================================

Strengths: Multiplayer, twin headed dragon, threat management.

Weaknesses: 1v1, goblin style aggro, higher mana curve

==========================================

Notable plays/cards (these are things I've found through various games by accident usually):

Vesuvan doppleganger can copy itself, it gains another instance of its ability each time it does. It also triggers dismisss into dream.

Copying Manlands for mana acceleration. (progenitor mimic is great for this)

Using Body double to copy progenitor mimic or dack's duplicant in grave which then enters as the intended creature.

Copy ectoparasite with a clone. Upon death it goes into suspend and I get a clone with some added +1/+1 at a later date
