This is my variant on the classic PST deck. While I quite enjoy my list I heavily suggest checking out AllwaysSleepy list if you want to see a "full budget" version of this list that is far more streamlined.
Well now that I have finished saying go look at someone else's list lets talk about mine. This list is similar to many other PST like with the names sakes within the deck Isochron Scepter , Dramatic Reversal , and Paradox Engine . I am sure most will know the combo but I will briefly explain how it works Isochron Scepter and Dramatic Reversal combined with 3 manas worth of non-land mana sources creates Infine mana through the use of Isochron Scepter ability allowing you to imprint Dramatic Reversal onto it which in turn untaps Isochron Scepter allowing you to repeat the process. Since Isochron Scepter ability only cost 2 mana if you have at least 3 mana being produced you will always have 1 mana left over and you can repeat this process an infinite number of times so you will, in turn, create infinite mana. This is similar to how Paradox Engine works. With Paradox Engine every time you cast a spell you untap all non-land permanents so a common play pattern is to have Thrasios, Triton Hero and Paradox Engine out and pereably 5+ mana from non-land sources available you active Thrasios, Triton Hero ability attempting to get a card you can cast with the mana you have available if successful you will untap you non-land permanents and repeat the cycle attempting to make more mana by drawing into non-land sources and playing them or draw into the Isochron Scepter and Dramatic Reversal combo. Once you have infinite mana you can draw your whole deck with Thrasios, Triton Hero and with various cards in the deck such as Aetherflux Reservoir , Deathrite Shaman , and Blind Obedience . Now that I have explained what makes my deck just like others it is time to explain what makes it different. One of the main differences you will see in my list as opposed to others is the lack of the card Ad Nauseam and in its stead, I play the card Bolas's Citadel . Now I am not going to try and make the argument that Bolas's Citadel is stronger than Ad Nauseam because even though Bolas's Citadel is a pet card of mine I will concede to the fact that Ad Nauseam is a format warping card Bolas's Citadel simply is not. The main win with Bolas's Citadel is to use Sensei's Divining Top and Bolas's Citadel in tandem to draw cards until you hit Aetherflux Reservoir from there you will being to gain more life than you loss casting spells until you hit over 150 and you "nuke" your opponents with you still standing. Now I will admit this is not the best combo that is why this is plan C this is more of a cute combo I enjoy doing and play the only because of my love for Bolas's Citadel .
