Posting this deck list because it looks like it might be fun enough to recreate at some point. There are a couple of cards in here that are strictly for league points and would be removed should I rebuild this (denoted by a *)
The lack of Sad Robot is intentional. This week's dookie point is searching a library, so I'm just not running any tutor effects. Those will be included in future builds.
Had a bunch of fun with the deck before and I was looking to play something which I could depower but still remain competitive. Forgot that actual list I used (not above), but then I came across a card that made me want to build a Torpor Orb version. So here's what I'm going to try out:
Thanks to a main forum necro, this got dredged up again. I have nothing constructive to add, just wanted to say that I really appreciated the Torpor Orb Brago list. Completely on the ear of what Brago usually looks like and I love it.

Brago is a fun list, but it can have so many moving pieces that sometimes it just doesn't feel like it's worth the effort. I did like the idea of a blink deck that actually relies on Torpor Orb.
