This deck is designed to make the most of enter the battlefield effects. I've filled this list with numerous creatures that have powerful enter the battlefield abilities. Gilded Drake is the MVP of this deck as it has the most powerful ETB ability in my opinion. The key to flickering Gilded Drake is to use cards that target creatures or permanents that say you"own" instead of simply saying you "control" Aminatou, the Fateshifter's second ability is a good example of an effect that targets permanents. Venser, the Sojourner first ability is an even better example of this as it adds to his loyalty whereas Aminatou's ability lowers her loyalty. I've included cards like Eldrazi Displacer, Felidar Guardian, Flickerwisp, Mistmeadow Witch, Long Road Home, Otherworldly Journey & Turn to Mist which will all allow you to be able to blink Gilded Drake. I've also included some cards that don't synergize with Gilded Drake but will still be able to target other creatures and permanents that you control.

Isochron Scepter is another very valuable card in this deck. It can take advantage of almost all of our instant spells with converted mana cost 2 or less. They're are three different ways to copy the Isochron Scepter. Copy Artifact, Phyrexian Metamorph, and Sculpting Steel can all copy the Isochron Scepter as well as any other artifact on the field. Be careful with the Isochron Scepter and Teferi's Protection however. While Teferi's Protection is generally a card used in response to a board wipe or an opponents Cyclonic Rift it can be used simply to abuse your permanents ETB triggers also. Doing this while you control an Isochron Scepter could put you in an awkward situation though. Casting the Teferi's Protection with one or more Isochron Scepters on the field could be bad depending on the spell that's underneath the Isochron Scepter and the instants in your hand. Once the Isochron Scepter leaves play, as it will when Teferi's Protection resolves, the spell that's been imprinted onto the Isochron Scepter will be exiled and a new imprint ability will trigger once the Isochron Scepter phases back in.

Infinite Combos: They're several infinite combos in this deck. Deadeye + Palinchron or Peregrine Drake = infinite mana Palinchron + Phantasmal Image and 7 seven (at least land must be able to produce blue) = infinite mana Isochron Scepter + Dramatic Reversal + artifacts producing at least 3 mana = infinite mana Felidar Guardian + Aminatou, the Fateshifter = infinite enter the battlefield triggers Infinite ETB triggers plus + Altar of the Brood = infinite mill

I hope everyone enjoys this deck and please let me know what you think. Feedback and suggestions are certainly welcome.
