All hail the lord of CHAOS!!! Yidris, Maelstrom Wielder, Lord of Chaos, Randomness and Coinflipping!

The precon deck with Yidris has a big focus on wheel effects. It was, in my opinion, an interesting approach, but I believe the went too all-in on that and didn't pay attention to other forms of chaos and randomness.When making this deck I decided to focus more on coinflipping and go less all-in on wheel effects. Hence I went looking for cards that make you flip coins (I discovered great cards like Stitch in Time and Fiery Gambit), because coinflipping is fun! There is one card, Krark's Thumb that's in the deck to help us gain greater control of our random coinflips.Another way to introduce Chaos to this deck is to use what the opponent uses. I believe this is great as you never know what you'll be getting AND it will always be on the powerlevel your opponent is playing, so it even scales well (Identity Thief).Finally, our commander Yidris, Maelstrom Wielder can give the spells we cast cascade until end of turn. In case he has double strike and hits twice (Fireshrieker) we get 2 cascade triggers for every spell we cast!

While chaos and randomness is fun, there are also cards that help us gain extra advantage over our opponents despite the randomness. For example Leovold, Emissary of Trest will make our opponents discard their hand, but not draw any cards when we play a wheel effect like Wheel of Fate. Another example is Waste Not, which will give us an edge over our opponents in function of what they discard.

Don't look at the landbase, I decided to add the more precise land-base later, what counts regarding the lands at the moment is the number I'm running, if you feel this can be lowered a little or needs to be upped, let me know.

If you like this deck don't forget to upvote it.

I also have a deck that focuses on ETB triggers, with Yasova Dragonclaw as commander, feel free to take a look and inform me if you think I should make Yidris, Maelstrom Wielder the commander and get access to black:
