Brief History of the deck
I like building decks with a card type/theme focus, currently I have
Animar - Creature Centric (50+ creatures)
Derevi - Enchantment Centric (40+ enchantments)
Daretti - Artifact Centric (40+ artifacts)
Proj Simic - In midst of converting to super friends, Planeswalker centric
Oloro - Hugger and life centric
I am missing a spellslinger deck, but I dont' want to go for the commonly used spellslinger commanders like Riku, Maelstrom Wanderer, Narset, Nin, Melek etc. Saw Shu Yun and decided that he is a good fit for a spellslinger while having a good option to win via the combat phase route. Hence I started to brainstorm and gather cards to build the deck. Most of the Shu Yun threads I found online features him going voltron, I am not really a voltron guy so I decide to approach the deck in an overall more general way by having cards that do numerous things but not excelling in a particular field.
Currently I feel that the deck, although it sports a few combos, it lacks stuff that sets the deck apart from other spellslingers in Jeskai colors. Any suggestions on what I should include? Too many things to add but too little slots sighz.
