Omega505: I guess that would make sense if you run Necropotence...do test it out and let me know how it goes!

It is high CMC, BUT I think it's worthy of inclusion, the contestant is, Drum roll ........ Azor, the Lawbringer

Managem: I've tested it before and the problem with it is that it doesn't prevent opponents from interacting with you on your turn. I think Grand Abolisher accomplishes this much better.

True, as far as Azor goes. I think if one is playing more casually, and there are other spell caster decks at the table, and granted Azor gets through that would be disastrous for them.

You may consider

Scrivener > Salvager of Secrets as it is "less mana intensive"

Or Mnemonic Wall. Better blocker, hits sorcery cards too.

Scope mine out if you'd like. I do give partial credit and inspiration to your deck, and I was aware of many cards myself, and did some research and came across some interesting inclusion of my own, especially with a few more enchantments.

Managem: Scrivener doesn't hit sorcery which is a huge downside for me. Your deck looks pretty solid and I do like the inclusion of Iona, Shield of Emeria with the ability to blink it as the game adapts. Cataclysmic Gearhulk is an interesting inclusion...have you tested it out yet?

I think Cataclysmic Gearhulk is not worth to be played. If you play against voltron decks, they'll be fine if you play it.

Omega505 actually I think that is best against voltron decks, it stops them from getting 20 artifacts/enchantments on their commander.

SynergyBuild I think that depends on your meta. I run Prossh voltron and don't really care about my board. There is also Sigarda, Host of Herons, I hate har so much, but she also have protection from Gearhulk. So... I think that depends on your meta if this gearhulk is worth it or not...

Omega505,

You aren't wrong... but I have never heard of Prossh Voltron, I have heard of Food Chain, aristocrats, dragon tribal, and token swarm, but not voltron, and while Sigarda Voltron isn't rare as it is what Sigarda is known for, for voltron I often see Uril, Sram, Kemba, or Rafiq, stuff like that.

It does depend on meta, but I didn't claim that gearhulk is always good, I was the one saying I didn't think it was bad in a voltron matchup, you were the one who said that it was definitively bad and voltron decks will always be perfectly fine against it.

The meta argument works much better against you than me.

SynergyBuild You're right, that's on me, I was too quick.

Btw, there is another sweet combo that really fit in this deck. Naru Meha, Master Wizard works really well with Ghostly Flicker or Illusionist's Stratagem. That combo can make infinite mana and draw. I just include this combo in my deck, so we'll see.

Are those cards good in this deck as is?

I am not sure if you can -1 aminatou to copy something. Wouldn't that need to be at instant speed?

This combo doesn't need Aminatou. You can just draw as much card as you want etc. Also, you can bounce Naru Meha in response to play any of your spells

Wait, you can? I though aminatou's abilities were at sorcery speed.

Naru Meha, Master Wizard seems too situational for me to warrant an inclusion and the fact that he doesn't synergize with Aminatou is another negative. I think he belongs to deck like Inalla, Archmage Ritualist that can abuse cards like this more.
