I'm wondering how 2 cards are performing for you: Hour of Revelation and Gift of Estates. The first seems to be a card more fitting in the sideboard, but I'm curios about your answer.
The new card from theros alirios, Enraptured it s 3cmc 2/3 and makes a 3/2 Reflection when it etbs... thats pretty good especially with charming prince or soulherder builds.
If you want a card that gives you tokens via an ebt trigger Blade Splicer is the superior choice. It can block the turn after it entered the battlefield (and the turns after if the token survives) and the tokens have the option to get first strike.
If you dont want to play the grindy game emeria does, I highly recommend removing sun titan and emeria to concentrate to the flickering. Maybe something like Blade Splicer and Kitchen Finks is better here.
Soulherder just seems like a win-more card to me as it doesn't really interact with the opponent, doesn't have an EtB ability/has no immediate impact and isn't a good blocker.
It's a win more card as much as flickerwisp. Yes, the value is not on an EtB trigger, the creature does way more if it sticks on the battlefield. It's one of the cards that has to be answered by the opponent (or it probably wins) which eats one removal spell that could target a sun titan. This on turn 3 increases the performance of the deck.
Maybe we all have to go back to where we started He seem to go all in on emeria and the recursion without any flicker effects. I thought at these days this could be problematic with some graveyard tricks on the rise.
Is there any video coverage? I know that face-to-face games stream sometimes.
Edit: Checked their twitch and youtube, found nothing.
I thought about going all in on the combo with teferi, as you can cast it end of the opponents turn and have a save attack. This seems to be quite strong.
Hello, I'm back. First of all I want to say I really enjoy seeing this thread this alive after I stopped playing some time ago. To that time it seemed to kind of die.
As I'm a bit out of deck and the format my comments probably won't be the best, however, I just feel like I have to add something to the Cavalier. I see three big problems with it: UUU (as you mentioned), it has not that high synergy with the deck and you probably blink it when you already won. In my opinion it's one of the win-more cards like Ephara or Panharmonicon. Especially compared to Court Hussar it seem to be weak, as the mentioned card comes down earlier, gets the engine running and is itself part of the recursion engine.
It is. This is another downside.

Vesperlark is strong as you can return a wall after a wrath, it trades with Arclight Phoenix (2 for 1).. Good utility, but no must-play card
