My twist on the Jacob's deck from the recent Command Zone Game Knights episode. I really like the idea that the deck scales in power with the table which is exactly the type of deck that I have been looking for. I chose to drop in order to have a stronger mana base. Plus I didn't feel that would be missed as and have a number of suitable replacements. I have also swapped in various cards which I personally prefer.

Also, I just enjoy the irony of copying someone else's idea about a deck that steals/copies other people's decks :p.

Once I have the time to play paper magic again I plan to sleeve up this bad boy.

Volrath, the Shapestealer is a perfect commander for this deck. Definitely going to try him out in place of The Mimeoplasm.

Sudden Substitution also looks pretty fun and I plan to try it out here.

Illusionist's Gambit is a pet card of mine and I figure since I am already stealing/copying opponents stuff, why not steal their combat step as well?

Swan Song provides a bit more cheap interaction

Biovisionary for an alternate win-con

I am not sure how Faerie Artisans never made it into the initial build of this deck. They do exactly what this deck wants by providing a consistent source of clones. Yeah sometimes they produce a dud token, but their ceiling is so very high.


Subtractions

Emrakul, the Promised End was cut because it's a rather un-fun card. This is a quirky deck meant for fun, interesting games and I felt that Emrakul went against that.

The Mimeoplasm....just look at Volrath! Look at him! He's perfect.

Saheeli's Artistry, Painful Truths, and Lazav, Dimir Mastermind - I have never been overly impressed with these cards.

Master Biomancer - Is a nice way to make my clones bigger than my opponents but I'd rather run more synergistic cards. He may make it back into the deck though.
