This is a work in progress. I'll be using this thread to keep track of the deck as I modify it.
I've managed to find all of the cards I'm interested in and I'm in the process of cutting down
to the final 99 (This used to have 200+ cards in it). And yes, there are a number of things I have opted
not to include such as timewalk effects. Yes, they're powerful, but I'm shooting for a strong yet not
broken power level. Broken is easy to build. Strong but fun is less so.
The deck is also following a very strong theme of copying big spells for fun and profit. The day 5 Eternal Dominions show up on the stack will be a good one.
EDIT: Alright looks like this is the final list for the time being. The power level seems to be in a great spot.
The deck definitely does stuff and interacts with the boardstate, but I made sure to remove any infinite combos
to keep the power level down.
