My current iteration of Arcades. The goal is to maximize the value you get through cheap defenders. You want to bounce your own walls to replay them and untap/tap Axebane, Wall of Kelp, Doorkeeper as much as you can. Multiple win cons through Altar of the Brood, Dookeeper, Triumph of the hordes, or outright beatdown with Tree of Redemption or Towering Titan. Could use more organic card draw in case your engine gets shutdown. A lab man win might be possible with some small changes? Land base is a little light but should suffice with avg cmc so incredibly low. Might want to cut the repeat untap theme to focus on the other themes. Needs more testing.
