Deep Analysis

Sorcery

Target player draws two cards.

Flashback—, Pay 3 life. (You may cast this from your graveyard for this spell's flashback cost. Then exile it.)

I'm a fan of Troyan, Gutsy Explorer myself. I don't have him built in paper but he's my Brawl deck on Arena rn. His second ability opens up edge case cards like Madness, flashback spells like Deep Analysis, and incarnations like Wonder.

Doomsday list with no Bazaar of Baghdad? :( Bazaar -> Deep Analysis is classic DD tech

Would something like Deadly Dispute or Village Rites be viable? My thought is sacking the Sneaky Snacker to draw cards and fuel Kami of Jealous Thirst since you'll want to be activating its ability every turn. Because the sac is an additional cost, it should hit the grave before the spell resolves so when you draw two, going up to 3 for turn, you'll immediately get the Snacker back? Correct me if that isn't how the sequencing works. Unfortunately they would be dead draws without a Snacker to begin with. Other than that maybe a way to return spells from your graveyard to your hand would be nice for the control aspect. Forbidden Alchemy to find Kami, Snacker or needed removal and Deep Analysis come to mind as good additions as well :>

Nice deck. A bit heavy on creatures? You need a few more Dimir tricks.

Ideas Unbound, Windfall and/or Dark Deal big card draw

Deep Analysis little card draw

Increasing Ambition big tutor

Mystical Teachings little tutor

Dark Withering great removal

Circular Logic great counterspell

Forbid and/or Demonic Collusion forever

I started playing in Odyssey (Apocalypse block, right?) in High School - Roar of the Wurm, Pernicious Deed, Deep Analysis, Wild Mongrel, Spiritmonger - all those cards are forever etched into my mind. I remember when standard was called type 2. I also now remember being distinctly upset that I got a foil Polluted Delta instead of a really sweet creature while cracking packs...and I swiftly traded that bad boy away LOL. Hindsight, am I right? There any trades you deeply regret?

Hey Balaam__ thanks for stopping by!

I'll keep your suggestions in mind. When constructing this deck I counted Lorien Revealed as a mana source, so I saw this deck as having 18 sources of . I counted it as a for two main reasons: 1) for the island cycling, but also because 2) it adds to the sorcery count and reduces the casting cost for my creatures early on. I think 18 blue sources is a reasonable number to expect to play by turn 2/3, but if I have a string of games where this is not the case I will have to reevaluate. So far it has not been a huge issue in my games.

I will concede the Desert is very much match dependent, but in the games they were relevant I was happy to draw them. My initial impression of a decklist like this was it could be susceptible to go wide decks, or those with fliers, and I don't know of a lot of ways to deal with those in monoblue once the spells resolve (I could Snap then Counterspell but that seems like a lot of resources to spend and not guaranteed removal). In matchups against decks with bulkier creatures, they can be more awkward, but typically by that time I had the for Counterspell or use Snap for a bigger tempo play.

I agree Foil is probably the most awkward card at the moment. I have cycled Lorien Revealed to grab an Island to pitch to Foil, but usually I just don't want to use 3 cards to answer 1 threat unless I'm dumping a flashback card like Deep Analysis. If I were to cut something/move it around, I would probably start there.

Thanks again for your suggestions, and I hope you have a pleasant rest of your day!

Do you mind swapping Deep Analysis for Lim-Dul's Vault or Valakut Awakening  Flip. I find Deep Analysis is rather expensive for its draw effect.
