Rinse and Repeat (Standard MTG Deck)

I have not enjoyed Azorius so much since Terminus and Feeling of Dread cycled out. This however, with the Skybind and Heliod, God of the Sun is super fun. 4 mana to bring out a 2/1 cleric enchantment that lets you bounce any non-enchantment=value.

The obvious blink targets are Ashen Rider, Clever Impersonator, Resolute Archangel , and Wingmate Roc. But you can get value from -3 Elspeth and then bouncing her, or bounce your opponents tokens/hydras (with X/X) and planeswalkers to reset their loyalty. Bounce their creatures or lands at the end turn so they stay gone for a full turn. There's a lot of fun and effective plays.

You can bounce your scry lands or life lands if you have nothing better to bounce. There's not too many enchantments to trigger it but the deck doesn't even need that to win.

Have to live long enough to get stable. Nyx-Fleece Ram seems to me is the best card under 4 mana to deal with aggro. Fat butt, gains life, and triggers Skybind later.

The 1st 3-4 turns will be the roughest. Hopefully get a ram out, use Taigam's Scheming to sift stuff to grave or set up better draws. Maybe use some removal on turn 3 or 4 Banishing Light, Hero's Downfall, Utter End.

Stabilize with AEtherspouts or End Hostilities.

Dig Through Time and Taigam's Scheming should help get the cards you need and get the cards you don't need out of the way. Also, with both Whip of Erebos and Endless Obedience to bring back a fat creature, you don't lose out by burying your creatures in the grave. Also, two cards with Delve to make use of other grave cards.

The land may need tweaking, but I figure I can probably do 24 instead of the 26 I would normally use due to the 4 Taigam's Scheming . If I took those out, I'd need 2 more lands. I then figure I want half my lands to be able to come in untapped. With the scheming, I may not need so many scry lands either....I could feasibly do fetches and basics with Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth... but I don't know about taking the extra dmg...the extra lifegain may be what I need most.
