Hello! You are looking at my modern Illusion tribal build - MANDRAKE!!!

"Master of magic, spells and Illusions. Enemies crumble with fear and confusion."

I really enjoy playing this deck online, it feels like playing Merfolk, but with additional Hexproof (which compensates for the downside Illusions have with targeted spells and abilities), and access to excellent flyers for evasion instead of Islandwalk.

I will build this up into a primer for the architype if I'm happy with how it tests/progresses as I'm really enjoying some of the synergies Illusions provide (Phantasmal Image targeting Lord Of The Unreal is VERY strong) but also I'm discovering some of the pitfalls to avoid when just starting out.

Thanks for reading!

Update after new Ixalan spoilers + 3 Jace, Cunning Castaway - 3 Fathom Seer

I only had Fathom Seer in the deck to fix a bit of the card draw issues, but the new Jace Planeswalker looks like he fits the role perfectly - +1 loots, -2 creates 2/2 Illusions creature tokens, ultimate rinse and repeat multiple times. Looking forward to release date to try it out!
