Sideboard


Izzet Creativity is a combo/control deck that is based around controlling the board, gaining value, and once the opponent has been exhausted of resources, putting a torrential gearhulk into play ahead of schedule to bury the opponent in card advantage. This can be accomplished either through casting creativity on one of the many tokens generated in this deck, or by hardcasting a gearhulk with ramp from treasures and powerstones. Ultimately, the goal is to flash back a magma opus with a torrential gearhulk which, under normal circumstances, will put the game permanently out of reach for the opponent.

This deck is flexible and resilient to hate, as all the combo pieces double as interaction. Additionally, being a control deck first and a combo deck second means that you can win games through rest in peace or leyline of the void effects without much trouble due to the average card quality in this deck being much higher than what is traditionally observed in dedicated combo decks. Overall, this deck is a combination of powerful, fun, and interactive magic.
