Deputy of Detention

Creature — Vedalken Wizard

When Deputy of Detention enters the battlefield, exile target nonland permanent controls and all other nonland permanents that player controls with the same name as that permanent until Deputy of Detention leaves the battlefield.

Oh man well I gotta bring up Aegis Turtle again, I love that card and blue also gets you Sidisi's Faithful, Contraband Kingpin, and Deputy of Detention,

But Concealing Curtains  Flip is sweet, and what feels way back in the day I even ran Disowned Ancestor who was okay in board stalls,

God-Pharaoh's Faithful,

Lagonna-Band Trailblazer is cool with stuff like Shape the Sands,

And hear me out, a card that works great with both tower defense and ensnaring bridge is Ornithopter.

Tetsuko Umezawa, Fugitive does as well.

Gilded Goose gets sweet as your mana curve gets lower,

Permeating Mass cracks me up if you focus more on assault formation and High Alert, But ive never gotten around to trying it.

And I guess Brokers Initiate is just a strict upgrade to Yoked Ox with her mana sink?

Arboreal grazer is sweet I'd definitely keep him and some harbingers

And I know it's a non-bo with collected company but I gotta make the obligatory statement about how sweet Lingering Souls is with tower defense,

Though is it too slow nowadays even with bridge? Shit I feel old. At least it can chump a giant murktide for a while

Cheers! Fae of Wishes is a really nice shortcut, for sure - shame I can't put extra copies of the toughness = damage cards in the sideboard! Deputy of Detention I treat as a regular sideboard card that I may actually need, whereas the others were kinda just the first that came to mind - I'll actually bung a Gauntlets of Light in there! That'd be smart, cheers.

I see you have a general strategy that is similar to mine. Instead of tutoring enchantments in the deck, you have Fae of Wishes for your sideboard and saving room in your deck, which is really nice. Prison Realm is good with that scry 1. I don't know if you know that you can't tutor Deputy of Detention with the Fae of Wishes considering that it's a creature.

4 Geist feels like too many, especially since the card just isn't that good anymore :'). Esper Sentinel is a really good one drop, and either generates card advantage or tempo advantage even if the opponent removes it as soon as possible. And t1 Sentinel into t2 Thalia is just backbreaking.

If you do decide to cut the dorks, I would probably cut CoCo unless you can find enough creatures to add. If you go cocoless with P-Endings, I'd suggest some Teferi, Time Raveler.

Reflector Mage is kind of bad outside of humans (except maybe vs Murktide). I suggest replacing it with Skyclave Apparition, or you can run both if you really want to. Maybe one Deputy of Detention too for bigger things or for Rhinos.

Honestly, before cutting dorks for p-ending I would just run 4 CoCo and 4 Prismatic Ending instead of path, since path isn't †hat great right now. You can answer murktide with Ice-Fang/Reflector/T3feri.

If you go with P-endings, that means Gaddock Teeg is bad so I'd run Lavinia, Azorius Renegade in his place.

9-lives Indeed! It will, just at the sacrifice of a bit of flexibility. Detention Sphere is, I'd imagine, a little better in controlling decks, whereas Deputy of Detention is a little better for aggro. Though I do appreciate, too, that Moon-Blessed Cleric can tutor up the former, so it's quite the toss-up.

How about Deputy of Detention instead of Detention Sphere? Can nip through for a bit of damage!
