So the idea behind this deck is to abuse Myth Realized and Isochron Scepter. I know this is not an original idea and the combo is better utilized in UW control or American control, but the idea seemed fun in a tempo/grindy deck. The addition of red allows us to play a more aggressive game and really utilize the amount of spells we want to cast. I know it's not super competitive but it seems to have strong enough synergy to throw even the most composed lists off balance.


The goal of the deck is to use Isochron Scepter to stall the game and to win with a huge Myth Realized, a bunch of tokens from Young Pyromancer or a slow burn


Creatures:

Young Pyromancer: with scepter on the field we get at least 1 token per turn, but more then likely she'll be able to storm the board pretty quickly

Bedlam Reveler: Currently one of my favorite creatures in red, we'll blow through our hand extremely fast so reveler makes sure we can refuel. I like him as a 3 of because he's pretty much a dead card in the early game


Spells:

Dawn Charm: probably our main target for scepter. The ability to pick between fog and other utility is just extremely difficult to deal with

Silence: is our strongest fog affect, it allows us to completely shut our opponents down on there turn. It's tough for most decks to rely on instants and creatures with flash to close out the game.

Boros Charm: The most aggressive target for scepter. It's a 5 turn clock but it also has protection built in to deal with a well placed Abrupt Decay

Lightning Helix: our burn spell of choice. On a scepter its a 6 point swing per turn

Path to Exile: arguably the best removal in modern. It's not great with scepter but if we have a Young Pyromancer on the field we can kill our own tokens to mana ramp and get another token in the process

Faithless Looting: not a great target for scepter but it does help us play Bedlam Reveler pretty quickly

Holy Day: just another fog affect, it affects us as well and doesn't give any other utility so it's not the best but it serves it purpose well

Apostle's Blessing: another way to protect scepter

Terminus: is our board wipe of choice, its not bad to hit if we have pumped Myth Realized. It misses the wipe and is then free so swing for the win


I'm open to any and all suggestions, so give me any ideas you have!
