New Untitled Deck by Antdacted

Format: Commander

Commander: Octavia, Living Thesis

Bracket: 2

Deck overview

Octavia, Living Thesis is a spells-matter octopus who usually costs just {2}{U} once eight instants/sorceries are in the graveyard. The deck is built around that discount: cheap self-mill cantrips and discard outlets fill the yard, then every later spell's Magecraft trigger turns an evasive creature into an 8/8. The primary line is a combat kill with unblockable or flying 8/8s; the secondary line uses Talrand, Sky Summoner and Murmuring Mystic tokens as the bodies. The commander is the payoff and pump engine, not a combo piece, and there is no hidden commander. The deck plays a draw-go control game early, then explodes in one or two high-spell-count turns.
