1/31/20 Update: IsoRev out, LED lines IN! —Jan. 31, 2020
Made more changes to the primer as well as added a sweet background for users to see on desktop (not available for Laptop or Mobile). S/O to Mordamen!
You will notice that IsoRev is no longer in this list. I realized that it is not needed anymore as the deck can do it all without it. All you have to do is play out your mana rocks, cast silence, smothering tithe, narset parter of veils and timetwister narsets reversal loop, draw deck you deck and repeat.
Thats infinite mana right there and I was drawing the deck anyway.
IN:
Lion's Eye Diamond - This has been a card that always could have been in the deck, but at the time, there was no true way to abuse it, now we can.
Angel's Grace - Also annoy's Sushi Hulk decks, but also can be used to help us win as well thank to Underworld Breach combo's.
Snap - Another great card that also combo's with Dockside well. Also can be used with other cards and annoy your opponents if you so choose.
Heliod's Intervention - Clearly this card is better than By Force or any card similar to it for that matter just by being Instant speed. Looking to slot this in one day.
Red Elemental Blast - After playing without it for 3 months, I think it is time to put it back in!
Blood Moon - I changed my land packaging up so now i can support it with no issue.
Back to Basics - Same as above, I think it is time I did so.
Out:
Isochron Scepter - this has been in this list since the first day Elsha was revealed. But after month's of data, this is no longer needed. We will miss you (not really).
Dramatic Reversal - Not as useful without Scepter and also can't be used at its maximum efficiency as a ritual in this deck either.
Copy Artifact - Not a terrible card, but it was only truly used for Double Scepter combo's and it felt bad using it on other cards.
Personal Tutor - I cannot stand this card. It telegraphs you hard and lets player's prepare for when you played the sorcery you tutored for.
Izzet Signet - I think the time of filtering colors have passed. Cascade Bluffs is better if I ever want one back in.
Opt - It wasn't the best cantrip, but it was never horrible either. Found something more slot efficient!
Maybe:
Rest In Peace - cut it from the main, but will keep it in the maybeboard for now. I just don't like how it interacts with your own Underworld Breach!
Plateau - Will add it back if I feel I can cut another basic.
