Deck overview

This deck is a mono-blue combo and spellslinger list centered on Orvar, the All-Form. Orvar turns low-cost targeting instants and sorceries into permanent-copying engines, allowing the deck to duplicate lands for acceleration, copy utility creatures for card selection, and assemble game-winning infinite loops. The primary win condition revolves around pairing Orvar with an untap creature like Peregrine Drake and a buyback targeting spell such as Whim of Volrath or Clockspinning. This produces infinite mana, infinite tokens, and infinite storm, which feeds directly into an immediate win via Thassa's Oracle or table-wide mill using Brain Freeze. Backed by dense single-target removal, countermagic, and spell tutoring, the deck plays a patient game of resource acceleration before pivoting into a compact, same-turn protected victory.
