Brudiclad, Alchemist in Training

Commander / EDH UR (Izzet)

This is the deck list I used for Friendetta episode [whenever it gets posted]. At it's core, this deck has one goal that is accomplished in four steps:

  1. Make a bunch of normal creature/treasure/gold tokens.
  2. Make a token copy of an actual card.
  3. ??? (Actually, turn all of the creature/treasure/gold tokens into copies of the actual card that got copied)
  4. Profit.

I brainstormed this deck the night before the episode was recorded and put it together the morning of, so it's pretty untuned and the mana base is super simple, so that would be the easiest place to upgrade.

Alchemist in Training refers to the unexpected, yet amusing discovery that this deck can end up turning Myr[rh] into Gold and vice-versa.

One thing that might seem odd in the deck is the inclusion of Charmbreaker Devils . While putting the deck together, I realized I was running a few "Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell, make a token" cards, as well as a number of instants and sorceries that made token copies of actual cards. Due to this, I decided to lean into the instant/sorcery minor subtheme and add Charmbreaker Devils as A) a way to recur useful instants/sorceries and B) a cool target to make my tokens copies of. I'm not sure if this subtheme will stick around in the deck long term, but just thought I'd point it out.

I would be happy to discuss ideas with other people looking to put together a Brudiclad deck, or if there's any confusion about specific card choices.
