Deck overview

Led by Riku of Two Reflections, this Temur deck blends spell copying, creature cloning, and multi-card combo finishes. The early game focuses on deploying efficient ramp through dorks and land-search sorceries to accelerate Riku onto the battlefield by Turn 4. Once established, Riku doubles value by duplicating entering creatures and impactful instants or sorceries. The deck transitions into lethal pressure through redundant win conditions, including Biovisionary cloned four times, infinite mana loops via Deadeye Navigator and Peregrine Drake, or creature mana loops with Food Chain and Squee, the Immortal. A balanced suite of interactive spells like Beast Within, Counterspell, and Cyber Conversion provides targeted disruption while the copy engine develops. With flexible recursion and multiple overlapping combo lines, the deck reliably pivots between grinding card advantage and executing sudden same-turn victories.
