Deck overview

This deck showcases the custom Prepare mechanic, turning split-card creatures into reusable spell engines. Led by a custom variant of Codie, Ravenous Codex, the deck doubles every prepared spell cast from the battlefield and can spend five colors to re-prepare its entire creature suite. Early turns focus on developing low-cost prepare creatures and fixing colors. Once Codie lands, the deck leverages duplicated draw spells like Emeritus of Ideation // Ancestral Recall and Bloodline Recollector // Ancestral Craving to achieve massive card flow. Mid-game turns chain copied ritual effects like Blazing Firesinger // Seething Song into game-ending payoffs such as Stensian Sanguinist // Exsanguinate and Jadzi, Steward of Fate // Oracle's Gift. While vulnerable to sweepers due to limited defensive countermagic, its extreme internal redundancy lets it repeatedly rebuild and overwhelm opponents through spell-copy value.
