Deck overview

This mono-blue control and combo deck uses Jin-Gitaxias // The Great Synthesis as a card advantage engine, board reset, and free-spell win enabler. The early game focuses on deploying 2-mana ramp and establishing hand size through cantrips and card draw. On Turn 4, the deck casts Jin-Gitaxias, utilizing its built-in Ward {2} for baseline resilience. On Turn 5, paying {3}{U} transforms the commander into The Great Synthesis, immediately drawing 7 cards via Chapter I. On Turn 6, Chapter II returns all non-Phyrexian creatures to their owners' hands. By casting a cheap proliferate spell like Contentious Plan or Experimental Augury, the deck advances the Saga to Chapter III on the same turn, allowing its pilot to cast spells from hand without paying mana costs. This resolves Enter the Infinite to draw the entire library, followed by Thassa's Oracle or Jace, Wielder of Mysteries for an immediate, protected victory.
