IKO Theory: Fiend Artisan Nightmare Fuel (Standard MTG Deck)

This deck basically brings Tarmogoyf and Birthing Pod into standard through Fiend Artisan. Mire Triton blunts aggro while self-milling and providing a convenient body for your fiend to sacrifice to summon a larger threat. Fiend Artisan and Polukranos, Unchained are naturally small bodies that get buffed, while Paradise Druid has situational Hexproof, which makes all three absolutely perfect mutation targets (e.g. Polukranos will become an 11/11 trample deathtouch lifelink if you mutate a Nethroi, Apex of Death onto it, which will stabilize as a 5/5 with a non-tap recurring fight ability).

Command the Dreadhorde is a finisher that lets you bring back your Fiend Artisans from the graveyard to close out a control match.

NOTE: This is a rolling decklist that I will be updating as the set is released in its totality--currently, it is not in it's final form.
