What kind of janky Johnny podcast would we be if we didn’t take a crack at Niv-Mizzet Reborn ? Ultimately there are a lot of ways to try to build around this beast of a card, but one thing is sure, you need a balance of guild cards in order to get a real payoff. This week Lydia went for a 5-color control variant that we think you’ll enjoy.

Other than Niv, no one or two cards make the deck. Rather, like the Embodiment deck featured a few weeks ago, variety is the key, here. Of course all stars like Thought Erasure and Assassin's Trophy are key, alongside cards like Ionize , Deafening Clarion , Dovin's Veto , and Kaya's Wrath

Tune in to Clever Combo S6E6 (season finale!) for more on the deck, and ideas on alternate Niv build-arounds. This will be our last regular episode of the season, so make sure to savor it until we manage to crib together a bonus episode.
