Riku Heartbeat Thousand Year Storm

Commander / EDH Combo RUG (Temur) Spellslinger

JoelAshton


Current paper build. The aim is not full combo, but an interactive spell slinging deck with a combo finish.

Pair mana doublers and land untappers for some tasty High Tide free Hide Tide action. Use Thousand Year Storm or Bonus Round to copy your untapper to generate BIG MANA. Cast every spell in your library to take BIG TURNS. Hope your playgroup are BIG PATIENT because it can take a while to be honest.

Tips for playing the deck:

  • Pick your spots for deploying a mana doubler. You should always aim to ideally kill your opponents before they have chance to take advantage of the symmetrical effects, but at very least you should aim to use the mana first. Dictate of Karametra had flash built in, but you can also use Electrodominance to deploy Heartbeat/Mana Flare at instant speed. Time Warp can jump you to your next untap step. If you've developed your mana enough then Heartbeat + Untapper can often be enough to get you going, but you'll need some extra lands to start floating mana.

  • The secret alt kill is looping Mystical Tutor + Time Warp + Seasons Past + big mana to lock your opponents out of every taking a turn again.

  • Thousand-Year Storm tracks all Instants and Sorceries you cast in a turn, including ones BEFORE it's on the battlefield.

  • You get copies of a spell for each Bonus Round that has resolved this turn, so if you manage to cast or copy it multiple times in a turn the effect does stack.

  • Spellseeker can get a lot of our utility X-spells - Cyclonic Rift (boardwipe), Electrodominance (damage/flash effect), Pull From Tomorrow (card draw), Reality Spasm (untapper), Gamble/Merchant Scroll/Mystical Tutor (tutors), a range of counterspells, and Remand/Narset's Reversal (for bouncing spell payloads on the stack to recast them).
