There are many different iterations of the Shardless BUG (Sultai) deck that travel the information superhighway, and I have experimented with a great many of them, but found that there is something about this specific build that works exceedingly well.The basic premise of any deck with a cascade element is to capitalize from that as best one can. It is the basis for the Living End deck in Modern and the purpose is served just as well here. The interaction between Cascade and Suspend is perhaps the happiest accident in Magic rules that I can recall. In this instance, allowing me to cast an Ancestral Vision directly from the resultant cascade from my Shardless Agent.

The deck is also full of powerful answers to threats and can gain momentum quite quickly, thanks to cards like Deathrite Shaman, the aforementioned Ancestral Vision; Grim Flayer; Brainstorm and Leovold, Emissary of Trest (who has proven to be one of the best answer cards to problematic situations in a very long time.).

There is so much one can say about the versatility of this deck, especially with the cards to which it has access as far as sideboard options are concerned. But the proof is in the pudding with this one. It is a deck with options, answers, and 'plays for days' and has truly become an absolute joy to build, test and play.

I look forward to hearing your feedback and potential suggestions. :)
