Deck overview

This is a Jeskai spellslinger/prowess deck helmed by Narset, Enlightened Exile, built to chain instants and sorceries into a critical mass of pumped prowess creatures and token swarms. The core loop is casting cheap cantrips and removal to grow Monastery Swiftspear, Young Pyromancer, Monastery Mentor, and Third Path Iconoclast boards, then attacking with Narset to cast noncreature spells from graveyards for free - turning every graveyard into a second hand. The deck wins through combat: a wide, prowess-pumped board finished by Akroma's Will (double strike + protection) or Gratuitous Violence doubling damage. A secondary storm line exists around Prismari, the Inspiration, copying spells for each spell cast before them to chain draws and pumps. The deck is fast, low-curve (2.33 average MV), and heavily redundant in its token/prowess payoffs, but it leans on the graveyard and has no tutors to find its finishers.
