The Cuts

• Agent of Treachery
  We only need one thief. The thief you use is meta dependent. If your meta has a lot of enchantments, keep Aura Thief. If it doesn't, put in Agent of Treachery instead.
  Agent also is an ETB effect, while Aura requires it to die to trigger. So take that into consideration when choosing your thief.

• Jeweled Amulet
  While a decent card (0 drop, semi-mana rock) I'm cutting this for a more useful card that can fill a similar role.

• Misthollow Griffin
  We only need one CFE creature, and Eternal Scourge is easier to cast (1cmc less, and entirely colorless).

• Sleight of Hand
  This was cut instead, to make room for other cards. The cut cards -> Added cards has been modified so the cuts match up better with the additions.

The Additions

• The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale
  This was a bad cut. Don't cut this unless you need to for budget reasons.

• Future Sight
  This was a semi-bad cut. I'm still considering cutting this if need be, but for now, it's a good card that serves as a great source of card advantage and a wincon with Top.

• Mirrormade
  This card is 1cmc more than Copy Artifact, but can also copy enchantments (which is useful for this meme). Due to this being a meme deck, I'm willing to give this extra mana a shot, but I won't be slotting out Copy Artifact. This may be a meme deck, but I still want it to be able to pivot back to being a strong and viable deck if need be (like if Food Chain gets countered/exiled before you can steal/copy it).

• Witching Well
  This is a 1 cmc, scry 2 artifact that can also draw 2 cards later in the game. Seems very useful, so I'll be testing this out. I won't be surprised if it's a good addition.
