Fairly basic deck concept, there's a lot of pirates, things that boost said pirates, and then a goal of winning the game with treasure tokens.

This was made after I've put a ton of time into a Chulane deck and got tired of the win condition being "Hope that you last long enough until you can get massive creatures". I want a win condition of "You will win". Not might. Yeah, there's counterspells, but you've got counterspells too. They can also destroy your game winning enchantments, but you can bring them back. Also pirates are cool, and I felt like having fun with a deck. It's probably bad, but hey!

Key Cards: - Inspiring Statuary. With the number of artifacts I have, this will result in a massive amount of "mana", so if there are other cards with this effect or something that can grab specific artifacts from a deck, this would be great. While, yes, treasure tokens CAN be sacrificed for mana, I feel like you should at least leave 10 remaining at all times in order to grab that win condition - Mechanized Production/Revel in Riches: Both produce extra treasure AND are the main focus for winning. Lots of cards are around for making extras, so someone would have to destroy multiple, and there are counterspells in order to counter back. Cards that give you an extra turn also make this pretty fantastic. Making it so you can cast all spells like they had flash also does so much for this, as you can wait as someone else counterspells what seemed to be a bigger threat, so right before your turn begins, you've set up your own victory.

Small note: Cavern of Souls probably isn't the best in here. Yeah, it's tribal, but for the most part, the creatures would not warrant a counterspell. But if you're willing to spend the money, hey, it's a nice addition. But you should maybe just add another basic land instead.
