Flame-Kin War Scout, Mogg Bombers, Mirror of Life Trapping, and Monkey Cage. I don’t have a commander to build the deck around, any suggestions. darkkirodon if I can keep the rest of the deck pretty budget, I can probably get a sphinx. Thanks for the suggestion! seshiro_of_the_orochi the only veiled card I really like is the veiled sentry because it forces my opponents to play their lower cmc spells first, disrupting their gameplan and the hidden guerrillas which are actually really good if any opponent has an artifact.

Monkey Cage Trap
Instant - Trap
If an opponent has cast a creature spell with Mana value 5 or greater this turn, you may pay instead of paying this spell's mana cost.
The next time a creature enters the battlefield under an opponent's control this turn, you create a number of 2/1 red and green monkey creature tokens equal to that creatures mana value.
Time for monkey business.
Create a legendary monkey monk.

legendofa, Monkey Cage's original printing begs to differ
Pineal Gland
Artifact
When Pineal Gland enters the battlefield, draw a card.
: Shuffle up to five cards from your graveyard into your library. Activate only as a sorcery.
, sacrifice Pineal Gland: Shuffle your hand into your library, then draw two cards.
Descartes believed that the connection between thought and reality was sustained through a gland in the body which housed thought itself. I wanted to create a card that showed that organ in a jar (as Izzet do) and also helps my jeskai wheel deck not self-mill. A single spell that shuffles graveyard-to-library doesn't cut it... I need a permanent with the ability to repeat the effect. And I think I balaned it out well by restricting it to sorcery speed (so it can't be abused by other combo decks).

Thanks for making me think about the joy of Monkey Cage again. I'd built my Daretti, Scrap Savant deck years ago and discovered Monkey Cage then, but I'd never figured out how to turn it into a real win-con. Well now I've got one: Scraptacular

Mystic Reflection , Biblioplex Assistant , Bolas's Citadel to Massacar's combo and and you'll get tokens of whatever you want and cast spells that are in your graveyard by paying life.
This still doesn't need Monkey Cage to work, but it's a fun card with Goblin Welder , Thornbite Staff and a sac outlet.

Done it: 5 card combo
Goblin Welder + Thornbite Staff
Pentavus and a Hangarback Walker may be useful

Goblin Welder + Thornbite Staff + one of these two in grave and the other on the field Myr Battlesphere / Monkey Cage = M&M TOKENS!!!!! (Monkeys and Myr)
Myr etb's and creates handy sacrifice tokens you can use to recur the monkey cage. You can sac the myr and recur it to get both more myr and monkeys each time.
The cage is superfluous in this combo since you could use any other artifact as a part of it, but it would work and be amusing.
