This deck is a preliminary draft of my commander deck, suggestions for cuts are appreciated. ((Please excuse my disgustingly full Maybeboard and Sideboard))

Welcome to my second attempt at a Riku of Two Reflections EDH deck. I'm still ironing some stuff out currently, but I hope to have it finished soon.

First things first, this is not intended to be a competitive deck, though I would like it to be able to stick around in a game with semi-competitive/competitive decks. Some cards I've included simply because I enjoy the card/the interactions the card enables, examples include: Mirage Mirror, Ertai's Meddling, and Voidslime (I know Disallow is better, I just like the art for Voidslime more).

Now to the Combos I intend to use:

• Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Pestermite / Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Zealous Conscripts
• Palinchron + Sneak Attack or Palinchron + Riku of Two Reflections or Bramble Sovereign + Palinchron ... A lot of stuff goes infinite with Palinchron we get it.
• Dualcaster Mage + Ghostly Flicker Infinite Mana/Infinte ETB for another creature
• Finale of Devastation copied with Riku grabbing first Avenger of Zendikar for a ton of plants, then second Craterhoof Behemoth for massive pump and trample... second Finale also gives all those plants haste.
• Biovisionary + some clones for a more stylish win.
• Narset's Reversal + Riku of Two Reflections Use Riku to copy Narset's Reversal and use the copy to target the original Reversal as a psuedo-buyback.
• Dualcaster Mage + Rite of Replication Go bonkers copying whatever you want, meanwhile getting infinite Dualcaster Mages
• Glen Elendra Archmage + Rhythm of the Wild repeatable Negate
• Temur Sabertooth protects stuff, and allows me to bounce creatures that I cheat out with Sneak Attack allowing me to cheat creatures in at instant speed then bounce them before the sacrifice for .
• I figured I'd include Doubling Season in the deck for redundancy with Parallel Lives and thought "Maybe some walkers that can ult the second they come down with Doubling Season would work well. I trimmed quite a few walkers that were less useful all the time. Worse case scenario Domri, Chaos Bringer is a Riot enabler/Deck Filter and Tezzeret, Artifice Master at least lets me draw a card to replace him.

The goal of my deck is to have something I can play with friends (who run decks of varying degrees of power) but still be able to at the very least offer some threat to the more Spike-y players that I know who sit down with a K'rrik, Son of Yawgmoth turn 3 win deck or a Urza, Lord High Artificer stax deck.
