Nice deck Necramus!

How are you liking Chains of Mephistopheles so far? You'd previously mentioned avoiding cards like Notion Thief and Narset, Parter of Veils due to them shutting off the damage Nekusar and the like would do with wheels. I would think chains would actually be much worse than the others in that department.. As not only are you missing out on the damage from wheels, you're also missing out on the card advantage by leaving the entire table (yourself included) hellbent.

Goldberserkerdragon So, they're just as likely not to draw into it as to draw into it. I honestly play him like a combo deck. I try to set up while using removal and control to keep anyone from getting a leg up on me. Once I've got a couple keys pieces down, I'll go all in on a turn, drop Nek, and immediately start wheeling. It's not uncommon to deal 30-40 damage to each player in a single turn. The way my deck is built, I'm just as likely to draw into an answer to removal, a piece of artifact ramp to offset the commander tax, or a redundant piece that can serve in Nekusar's place to keep going, even if he is removed. My friends hate my deck, and it's always a 3v1. So, I go into it with the archenemy mindset and I rarely come away disappointed.

I hope that helps! The philosophy behind the build is just as important as the cards you use on this one. Also, please don't use Narset. I've pissed many a Reddit user off with my take on Narset, Parter of Veils in a Nekusar deck. It shuts off your commander. Sure, you get one sided wheels, but the point is to wheel the table. Lol. I know you're better than that, but I can't help but throw the disclaimer out.

I see scrap crawler replacing sheoldred once that rotates out.

I'm just surprised no one mentioned before but it seems to be able to take inspiration from Narset, Parter of Veils decks.

Formerly they used Dark Deal and Day's Undoing

Decks with white could also Flash in the former with Teferi, Time Raveler. It was a very annoying control deck.

If you go the Maralen route, then Narset, Parter of Veils and some Windfall effects would synergize well. Windfall can help you find combo pieces and can be back breaking with Marlen or Narset out. Best part is each piece works well on its own.

Having completed the Marlen combo before, your biggest threat tends to beil what's left in their hand which a Windfall will fix.

Some small thoughts for fun things and stuff:

• In addition to Echo of Eons, I'm quite a fan of Time Spiral. It's not as abusable, sure, but untapping your lands is quite nifty. Given you have Narset, Parter of Veils in the deck, maybe you could also go for the Teferi's Puzzle Box lock with it...
• A "given" for me, in any monocolor deck, is going for the Extraplanar Lens strategy with snow-covered lands. You could also think now about Winter Moon, which seems like a lot of fun (for you).
• Mystical Tutor might be something I would prefer over Merchant Scroll, primarily because you can imprint it with Isochron Scepter and get lots of instants and sorceries. (On the other hand, you do have a lot of targets for Scepter...)
• In terms of zero-mana disruption, perhaps Commandeer and/or Misdirection are worthwhile. In a deck like yours, maybe Counterbalance could also be worth consideration, given how competitive decks have lower/more consistent mana curves (and you have Sensei's Divining Top...).
• Hurkyl's Recall seems also like a "fun" toy, especially in conjunction with Mycosynth Lattice, and given how artifact-heavy a lot of strategies/decks are...

I'm gonna test it out tonight. I think it's the best version I could make using my collection (Some cards are already in other decks, so if avoidable I would like to keep them in there). Small doubts on some cards though. Maybe its better to put Tormod's Crypt in, so that I can draw or get the creatures back that I sacrificed, but I don't know what to take out. And Maybe 40 lands is a bit much, online I read a lot of people have 38, some ramp decks even 34-36. But some of my ramp is about playing extra land from my hand, so not sure. Also I wouldn't know what to change.

Also my best card draw instants and sorcery's are in my Jace, Wielder of Mysteries deck. But I think with cards like Narset, Parter of Veils , Elder Gargaroth and Beast Whisperer and such in the deck that it will work out.

Narset, Parter of Veils?

Changed my sideboard up a bit. Added a couple more islands against decks that have BloodMoon. It also just helps fix my mana for cards like Archmage's Charm.

Added a couple more Blast Zones. I played against amulet titan. The lands are very good at killing Amulet of Vigor. I'm also keeping Field of Ruin, again because deck's like amulet titan contain many special lands. It also can destroy other cheap cards in other decks, such as Ragavan, Nimble Pilferer.

Subtlety is a response to more creature heavy decks and can replace Force of Negation. Subtlety is good, but it offers several problems in the main deck: for one, it cannot be recast with Snapcaster Mage, for another, it does not deal with a threat permanently. Lastly, it cannot be searched up by cards like Narset, Parter of Veils. The upside of course is that it deals with early threats and has a significant body for dealing damage. Better in the sideboard for this deck, at least for now.

I am still a few cards short. I am happy to receive suggestions. I feel like my deck is pretty good against aggro decks for the time being. It is mostly fast combo decks that can be difficult to deal with.
