Deck overview

This is a high-synergy, instant/sorcery-themed deck that looks to sculpt an early advantage through a dense suite of card-advantage and mana-generation spells, then close the game out through a combination of combat-trick and commander-damage inevitability. The commander, Tellah, Great Sage, is both a payoff and a recursion engine: with 7 mana spent on a non-creature spell, he draws two and can act as a one-sided "Devastation" by sacrificing to shoot opponents.
