Going more proactive with ETB & blinking —Oct. 26, 2022

There has been massive overhauls made 1) Deck is now less reactive; If I am left to my own devices now I can simply close out the game 2) More aggressive groupslug cards have been put in 3) This deck has become my ETB-centric deck, it has been a good angle to take considering the commander's ETB ability is stellar & other creatures with ETB recursion are just gravy

Unsurprising strong adds: Sword of Hearth and Home, Blade of Selves, conjuror's closet - the usual ETB suspects

Surprising workhorses: Firbolg Flutist - this dude causes wild power swings & kills commanders in a worst-case pinch. Baleful Beholder - alot of value in enchantment sac for all in Rakdos blinking/recursion. Descent into Avernus creates the best kind of game clock. Protection Racket - Self-exile seems counter productive, but I've tried to construct the deck such that I can afford to lose anything to further the noble goal of dealing damage or accruing massive card advantage (2 combos in-deck & I am not heartbroken if those combos are broken up - all combo components are quite useful in this deck even when split up).

Yeah, also needs G.Merch for more aggressive playing too I think

Whenever I see Brash Taunter anywhere, I can't help but suggest Blazing Sunsteel, the wincon is just too real with these two. Considering Kardur's massive lifedrain, Subversion could be fun indeed. I just found it and I don't yet know what to do with it. Maybe it helps you. Also, as you already want creatures to die, how about Revel in Riches as ramp and another potential wincon?
