Do you like sphinxes? Do you like Fact or Fiction or effects like it? Do you like drawing cards? Do you like laughing like a madman as your opponents watch you take turn after turn while you slowly bash them in the face over and over again? Then this deck is for you.

This deck is meant to steadily build up a board with useful enchantments and artifacts that give you useful ways to get out multiple sphinxes in one turn and abuse the power of those sphinxes. Once that happens, your slow plodding deck that doesn't seem to do much turns into a nonstop flying beat down deck that chains extra turn after extra turn to slowly kill off your opponents. This deck does not have to be played that way, but it can often turn into that. Make no mistake, your opponents will probably hate you for playing this, but at the same time, it's still meant to be a fun casual deck. Word to the wise: even though this deck is not a combo deck, this deck involves a lot of triggers so be prepared. I appreciate any and all suggestions to make this deck better.

Important note: I'm trying to keep the budget between $350 and $400 paper. As such, it won't include cards like Jace, the Mind Sculptor or other more expensive cards that cost fifty dollars or more. This is a fun casual deck that I can actually see myself building in the future. I'm also trying to keep this deck pretty strictly tribal, with the notable exception of Thassa, God of the Sea. If you like this deck but think it could be better, please leave a suggestion that might improve it.
