Polaris on Timing and Copying Triggered Abilities

Yes.

When an ability triggers, it is put on the stack the next time players get priority. Revel in Riches' controller puts its upkeep trigger on the stack, then players get priority before it resolves. Casting an instant once the active player passes priority is a valid play, and the copy of the triggered ability would go above it on the stack, so if nothing else changes things, it will resolve first and Return the Favor's caster would win.

Player A controls Revel in Riches and has 10+ treasure tokens on their upkeep, putting the trigger on the stack.

Would Player B, who also controls 10+ treasure tokens, be able to use Return the Favor to copy the triggered ability and steal the win?

Nice deck, seems fun to play !

You may take a look at folliwing cards that may fit your "play from exile" strategy : Share the Spoils, Wand of Wonder or Fevered Suspicion. (I highly recommend Share the Spoils, which is a very fun card to play in EDH.)

Revel in Riches may be a strong win conditions to add in your deck. However, I don't think it's a fun card and your deck doesn't seem to be built to be overpowered.

Thanks for the recommendations KayneMarco. I actually have 2 copies of Revel in Riches, but I have them in my Burakos and Vraska decks respectively as alt win-cons. I figured Revel in Riches might get a bit more mileage in those decks since their creatures are a bit on the smaller side. I definitely considered it for this deck, but opted for some of the X spells instead.

This deck is more so a quick successor to my old Windgrace deck (not really my playstyle after a few games) and my Prosper deck, so I threw it together with what I had on hand. Not sure if I'll keep this deck around for long term, since it has some overlap with my Goro-Goro and Satoru deck, in terms of wanting to play Haste-y stuff, and also has overlap with the aforementioned Burakos & Vraska decks with the Treasure synergy.

I don't currently own a copy of Old Gnawbone, and since I'm unsure if I'll keep this deck long-term, I'm not really sure I'd want to invest in a copy at the moment. Proxying is definitely an option in my play-group.

Honestly surprised I don’t see Revel in Riches in here. With the heavy treasure theme it seems like a no brainer. Did you leave it out on purpose or did you or did you forget about it?

As for additional utility out of your treasures: Why don't you just Revel in Riches?

Thank you for taking the time to offer your feedback, and for reading through the primer Profet93, I appreciate it.

I like what you've suggested and wanted to offer my thoughts in turn:

Potential Considerations

• Skullclamp - A great card draw staple. I think I didn't initially consider this one mostly because I currently have ~8 creatures with 1 toughness, & don't really make small 1/1 tokens besides Preacher of the Schism. High likelihood for revisiting & inclusion.

• Sakura-Tribe Elder/Rampant Growth - I could see Steve slotting in over Farseek. I have Farseek in here as a means of grabbing Overgrown Tomb for quick fixing.

• Viridian Longbow - This was also suggested by UltimateRoxas40. Definitely a kind of cheeky include. I used to run it in an early version of my Prosper, Tome-Bound deck. The higher concentration of Deathtouch in this deck raises its ceiling. I don't play with equipment much beyond Skullclamp, Lightning Greaves, & Swiftfoot Boots, but might consider swapping one of the instant/sorcery removal spells depending on how first irl playthroughs go.

• Academy Manufactor - I considered this for the deck initially, but it turns out it would be a non-bo with Vraska, the Silencer. Her wording reads "Whenever a nontoken creature an opponent controls dies, you may pay {1}. If you do, return that card to the battlefield tapped under your control. It's a Treasure artifact" Manufactor only makes its plethora of tokens whenever an effect creates a Treasure, Food, or Clue token. Currently, Deadly Dispute, Tireless Provisioner, & Revel in Riches are my only cards that make treasure tokens.

• Mastermind Plum - He has replaced Preacher of the Schism in a couple of my other decks already, so I guess I might as well continue the trend. I think I picked Preacher mostly because I have copies on hand, & my Mastermind Plum is already in another deck.

• Infectious Bite - Forgot about this card & must have overlooked it in my initial brewing. Will likely swap out with Bite Down.

• Bootleggers' Stash/Parallel Lives - Ehhhhh, I kinda like Revel in Riches as my awkward value 5 drop more than Bootlegger's Stash. I don't think I'd consider Parallel Lives for similar reasons listed as Academy Manufactor.

Regarding all the anti-token stuff you mentioned, I agree that Pernicious Deed is what I'm most likely to include. I had it in the initial draft of this deck, but swapped it for some other removal.

Addressing Questions

• Liquimetal Torque - Definitely a case of "I know I have this on hand". I was also considering Fellwar Stone for this slot. As cool as Jet & Emerald Medallion are, I don't have a copy of either yet. I usually try to focus on what I have initially, then save stuff like the medallions for future upgrades if I like a deck enough to continue investing in it.

• Kura, the Boundless Sky - I typically play against a Kangee, Sky Warden deck quite frequently in my meta. My friend that pilots the deck will frequently go after decks that don't have flying defenses up, & tends to avoid swinging at boards that will stop the flyers. So Kura is here to play mind games with him & deter aggro as a deathtouch flyer, but also is just a bigger body that can help soar over defenses & chip people for 4 damage until they can do something about it. Once he does die, I will pick the land option.

• Saryth, the Viper's Fang - I feel like I tend to see 1-2 wipes per game, but much more targeted removal. Wipes are inevitable, so I don't really worry about them. I'd rather dissuade targeted removal, or at least speedbump folks by offering Saryth up as the bottleneck to the rest of my board without a wipe. If she is too redundant, this could be a potential swap out.

• Questing Beast - I like it for being a haste-y body that also blocks well against aggro crack back. More importantly it helps negate the occasional Fog effect. Because of my main meta being more aggro, I'd rather have bodies on board than to a certain extent than a higher volume of kill spells. The deck started off with more instant & sorcery speed removal, but felt anemic for board presence.

• Guardian Project - Don't think I've ever encountered anyone killing creatures in response to the trigger for denial. Maybe it's happened once or twice, but I don't think it's happened with any kind of consistency to make me worried about it.

• As for the 3 X finishers, this is definitely another case of "I have these on hand". Most of the time Damnable Pact will be a draw spell for myself, but does have that corner case potential to finish off someone that's low enough. I've seen Exsanguinate enough in my meta, & if it hasn't acted as a finisher, it helps its caster stabilize enough to attrition everyone else out. I think I'd rather include Rise of the Dark Realms over Finale, mostly for budget purposes.

Thank you for the questions and suggestions! Definitely a fun thought exercise to get my day started.

Have you ever tried Revel in Riches? It's not a bad card with your Commander, especially since you can use treasures and squirrels to kill small stuff, very handy vs decks with plenty of X/1s. I was also curious if you have tried Mitotic Slime, it's an impressive source of bodies/tokens for a Golgari deck, it's very possible to build combos with it and Demon of Dark Schemes, and the Demon also kinda likes Chatterfang since he makes bodies while other cards make treasures!

I was so interested in this deck that I finally pulled out Haakon from my Meren deck, replacing him with Chatterfang. This deck convinced me that he's probably a better fit in a combo oriented deck.
