A "75% Power Level" deck for multiplayer that is all about generating value. Our Commander Unesh, Criosphinx Sovereign makes up the heart of our value engine by giving us cost reduction and a mini Fact or Fiction every time we cast one of our Sphinxes. All of our creatures are Sphinxes with the exception of two Shapeshifters that are used to copy key artifacts like Caged Sun and Door of Destinies and a Human Wizard that can tutor up our key spells like Mana Drain .

This deck is highly interactive as we ask our opponents to sort our cards into piles for us. Some of our Sphinxes like Sphinx Ambassador also provide fun interactions with our opponents and their cards.

Victory for this deck is secured through combat via a host of large-bodied flying Sphinxes, perhaps swinging in after a Cyclonic Rift with Overload or a Capsize that has been cast multiple times thanks to the mana generated from Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx .
