This has been my pet deck since 2015, slowly changing as sets come out. It’s designed to abuse Blink Engines to maintain draws and answers. Many of the creatures are hate-bears designed to slow the game down, but not to lock the board out. It’s designed to play control without being oppressive or discourage gameplay. My play group aims for the 75% competitive deck builds. While tokens can win the game, we want the flavor win of Approach of the Second Sun. I’d say it plays around 6.5/10 competitive.
