So I've been watching alot of "taking turn" variants with Jace. They seem super interesting.
I also have seen the new taking-turns variants with as-foretold.
I've always wanted to break that card... and after playing a few sample games with it online: As-foretold in a taking-turns shell seems unbelievably powerful once it hits 4-5 counters.
Which started giving me a really crazy idea: what if one could modify taking turns to incorporate fast mana?
At first I tried bant (mana-dorks) but they were too week to removal.
I then started experimenting with the below build utilizing spirit guide and blood moon as an alt-win condition.
Effectively the goal of the deck is to turn 2 a blood moon or as foretold. However I had to give up alot of counter magic / extra cantrips to fit in the fast mana + blood moon package. Not sure if it's worth it.
