Early build of Extus, would love to hear of some cards to swap/replace/add in order to narrow down the storm-y/aristocrats theme I'd like the deck to steer towards. Any changes, additions, removals, etc. are greatly appreciated!

I've noticed there are a few ways to easily bump into combos (especially with Dockside Extortionist ). Here are a few combos/value interactions I've noticed that can be pulled off pretty consistently:

• Any buyback card + mana producers + Extus, Oriq Overlord  . With enough mana, Extus can easily loop a card in and out of grave, so long as you have enough items on board that allow for the mana needed to buyback your Worthy Cause or Recruit the Worthy . All these mana producers are great cards to have in their own right, and include Phyrexian Altar , Ashnod's Altar , Dockside Extortionist , and Pitiless Plunderer .

• With Extus, your sacrifice spells can be used to bounce a creature to hand rather than have them stick in grave. Village Rites is a great example of this.

• Even with a relatively low creature count for an aristocrats deck, copy spells can be abused to simply re-use the best creatures you grab of simple draws or tutors. Malicious Affliction , Plumb the Forbidden , and even a simple flashbacked Faithless Looting offer thier own value on top of bringing back your best creature over and over.

• Another very easy way to stumble into combos/value are mana producers like Blood Pet or Skirk Prospector + Enduring Renewal . Simple but effective way to give yourself infinite storm or sacrifice triggers.
