Deck overview

This deck is a Jeskai Blink midrange list commanded by Shiko, Paragon of the Way. It utilizes enter-the-battlefield creatures, graveyard recursion, and flicker engines to generate steady card advantage and board presence. Early turns establish mana rocks and fill the graveyard with utility cards. On Turn 4, Shiko enters to copy low-cost permanents or spells, accelerating value generation alongside cards like Dour Port-Mage, Candlekeep Sage, and Aether Channeler. The primary win condition revolves around establishing an extra-turn loop using Temporal Manipulation, Archaeomancer, and Teleportation Circle on Turn 6, taking unshared turns until combat damage with flying creatures eliminates the table. Alternate finishes include an overwhelming pump via Moonshaker Cavalry or an overloaded Cyclonic Rift. The deck is protected by comprehensive instant-speed answers, phasing, and hexproof providers.
