I've always liked miracles. And it turns out that all six of the blue & white miracles are perfectly suited for Commander: Terminus & Banishing Stroke tuck creatures on the bottom, Vanishment tuck things on top, Devastation Tide bounces all nonland permanentts, Temporal Mastery gives you an extra turn, and Entreat the Angels is a really good win condition.

Why Rasputin Dreamweaver?

The combination of Rasputin Dreamweaver, Entreat the Angels, and Akroma's Memorial is the reason you want to play this deck. All 3 are powerful cards on their own, any one of them combos with any other, and if you ever get all 3 online, someone is about to get wrecked. With a light flicker theme, and plenty of card draw & library stacking, the deck stalls with ETB effects while ramping and winning with fliers.

The deck has 3 main win conditions: Entreat the Angels - Ramp for as much mana as possible to cast as large of an entreat as possible, as an EOT miracle if possible, with Akroma's Memorial on the battlefield if possible. (a.k.a. the miracle win)

Akroma's Memorial, Stormtide Leviathan, Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite, Sun Titan - Cobble together enough other threats to deal enough damage to win through normal attacks. (a.k.a. the normal win)

Jace, the Mind Sculptor, Venser, the Sojourner, Karn Liberated, Predator, Flagship, Maze of Ith - The deck has enough defensive cards to protect your planeswalkers long enough to try an ultimate one of them to victory, even against multiple opponents. You can even sneak in a Temporal Mastery for double activations if that will put you over the top. (a.k.a. the planeswalker win)

An optional win condition is the Helm of Obedience + Rest in Peace combo. Because Rest in Peace makes it so cards going to the graveyard are exiled instead, it’s a cheese win that I couldn’t resist adding to this deck.

It’s been years since I made this and I finally want to return to it! An upvote and a suggestion would be great!
