I have been working on this deck since Gnostro was spoiled and now I finally believe that I am complete. For those of you wondering about my edits to my Siani/Eligeth deck, those will be coming in the next few days. So essentially this deck aims to stray away from typical storm, which can be very unfun to play against. I tried to make a storm deck that is a little more flexible and unique. In addition to many storm staples and a few common wincons such as Aetherflux Reservoir and Ignite Memories , this deck's endgame is through damage. Even though the card specifies that you can only damage creatures, cards like Repercussion and Brash Taunter can get around that. At the very least, cards like Gorgon's Head and Thornbite Staff can help control the board enough until you can get some of the wincons out. Gnostro's other two options are not as supported in this deck, but if you need lifegain it works and if you manage to have Eligeth, Crossroads Augur out you can probably win the game. The final part of this deck are untappers so you can use these abilities multiple times each turn for tons of value. In addition to many instants and sorceries that untap gnostro as well as increasing your storm count, Chakram Retriever and Disciple of the Ring have amazing synergy that, with the right cards, can easily win the game the turn you get them out. Lastly, this deck took a long time to make and I was forced to cut many cards, so I would appreciate any card suggestions that should be added into my deck, both cards in my maybeboard and cards that I maybe didn't even consider. Feel free to comment as you please.
