New Brother's War Mishra, Claimed by Gix   deck. My version of the deck will be focused on guaranteeing a tutor (graveyard or hand) for Phyrexian Dragon Engine   which is the key component for the meld into Mishra, Lost to Phyrexia    . The side focus will be going wide for damage each based on the # of creatures attacking. Also using wheels and discard since it's actually a good thing if Phyrexian Dragon Engine   ends up in the graveyard with unearth giving haste. Last revision makes the deck more focused on extra turns and a bit more red creatures. Newest revision took out some of the extra turn phase cards to replace with generically strong reanimate effects like Reanimate and Victimize and creatures that do well with being cheesed out of the graveyard such as Vilis, Broker of Blood, Void Winnower, Razaketh, the Foulblooded & It That Betrays. Did a couple playtests and it seemed pretty smooth getting Mishra, Lost to Phyrexia     out but it's going to get hit hard after it comes out since it's repeatable. Getting the combo out the 2nd time is possible, since Phyrexian Dragon Engine   goes to graveyard after the meld creature dies (to my knowledge) but expensive when you have to pay unearth + command tax again. I might take out a couple creatures to get some more card advantage going (ended up taking out 1 land and Skitterbeam for Cursed Mirror and Necropotence). Recently added Disciples of Gix because it's on theme but I'll probably take it out because 6 is too much for the effect (ya they didn't make it, too high CMC). Recently just some small tweaks where I took out Wheel of Fortune due to price and replaced with Bedevil to add some more removal. After playing a couple games, I think the primary thing the deck is missing is protection of some sort. Mishra, Lost to Phyrexia     generates A LOT of hate, way more than I initially figured but it's pretty scary to leave out. The problem is that you can only play it twice and then it's gone forever due to Phyrexian Dragon Engine   being exiled after the 2nd play. I'm still looking for the Mother of Runes of Rakdos but still haven't found a great solution. Oh I also removed Damn because it's outside color ID and I just didn't realize it, that ended up getting replaced with Charcoal Diamond.
