What do you do when you crack two copies of a low powered Planeswalker no one wants to buy? Force a deck around it, of course. As such, this list is a little bit scattered as I am testing and throwing things at the wall and seeing what sticks.

The surprising bit is that the deck does work occasionally. Jaya Ballard is not good, but her ult happens sometimes which is great in this deck, and sometimes she enables some very swingy turns with just her +1s: turn 5 Jaya into +3 mana into Sweltering Suns against a board full of vamp tokens, swing with double prowess triggered Soul-Scar Mage. the locus god also really enjoys her other plus one.

Other times this deck does nothing and dies to big-fat creatures. But it has a lot of fun interactive turns most of the time, and I've been enjoying it.
